Mother Mother
Body (Live)
[Verse 1]
Take my eyes, take them aside
Take my face, and desecrate
My arms and legs
They get in the way
And take my hands, they'll understand
Take my heart, pull it apart
And take the brain, or what remains
And throw it all away

[Chorus]
Cause I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body

[Verse 2]
Take my lungs, take them and run
Take my tongue, go have some fun
And take the ears, take them and disappear
And take my joints, take them for points
Take my teeth, tear through my cheeks
And take the nose, go and dispose
Oh, would you go dispose?
Just go dispose

[Chorus]
Cause I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
I've grown tired of this body
Fall apart without me, body
[Bridge]
Take my eyes, take them aside
Take my face, and desecrate
Arms and legs, get in the way
Bodies break

[Chorus]
I've grown tired of this body
A cumbersome and heavy body
And I've grown tired of this body
Fall apart without me, body

[Post-Chorus]
I've grown tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy
Tired of this body
Fall apart without me
I'm tired of this body
Cumbersome and heavy (Take my eyes, take them aside)
I'm tired of this body (Take my face and desacrate)
Fall apart without me (Arms and legs, they get in the way)
I'm tired of this body (Take my lungs, take them and run)
I'm tired of this body (Take my tongue, go have some fun)
I'm tired of this body (Take my heart, pull it apart)
Cumbersome and heavy body
Cumbersome and heavy body
Heavy body, heavy body
[Outro]
Thanks so much, thanks again
It's nice here, I mean, we're elevated
See out this big windmill, it's a nice day
It's a bit of a bummer we're sort of passing through Montreal tonight, and
I mean, whenever we come here we just wanna stay here
And this particular event is so brief, but
On the one hand, you know, we've never done anything like this before and
We haven't played in Montreal in a while, so it's nice to- nice to reunite
And it's nice to see, you know, where the things are standing
It's just a really good feeling in the room
And on the other hand, we're going to New York this evening
So that's always a good time, that Big Apple
And we're doing a residency in Brooklyn, so if you guys know people out there
I'm sure you do, some of you, it's close by, right?
And every Monday night for the next three Monday's we're gonna be in Brooklyn playing some music
But it is not about then nor is it about the past, it is about this moment
So, on that note, we will segway into a song
A song about striving for a more simplistic path, I suppose
It's off our new record, here we go
