Mama’s Broke

True False True Lover

Mama’s Broke


True false, true lover
I'm the morning, she's the night
When the good times are over
Won't you come and stay awhile

I know that you're no good
You don't treat her like you should
As if I'm an island on which you've never stood
You don't treat me that way

I stand by, watch you fuck who you despise
Watch hate clouding lust behind your eyes
They rest sweetly upon me, they wander when she cries
You don't see me that way

True false, true lover
I'm the morning, she's the night
When the good times are over
Won't you come and stay awhile

I need my time to wash away
A flood to carry me to the end of the day
So I can sleep to dream to hear a thing you'll never say
That you don't need me that way

True false, true lover
I'm the morning, she's the night
When the good times are over
Won't you come and stay awhile

True false, true lover
I'm the morning, she's the night
When the good times are over
Won't you come and stay awhile
