When Mama Was Moth
Cocteau Twins

Sunburst and snow blind
I'd seen the fear running down my brook
(I shouldn't fear)
While mama was clear, one more brook
(Queer)
Chills all start screaming
Ribbed and veined

The sunburst and the snow blind
A chill of fear running down my back
When mama was moth, I took bulb form
Body electric
Writhe in vain

Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
Body electric
