Innocence And Guilt

Steve Harley And Cockney Rebel


dearest mama, everything will be all right now
i will be safe
it's only that the outside which i have not seen
for so many long years
during my divine exile
makes me a little nervous , mama
but i think the time has come for your
unnamed warrior-child
to make his presence obvious
don't you agree, mama ?
mama, are you listening to me, mama ?
are you there, mama ?
mama, come back, come back, come back, come back
(mama: but i have things to do, dear)
Mama, i am blinded
i feel nothing save death
it all seems to come up from behind me and hit me like
an avalanche
i feel nothing save evil
repossess me, mama, repossess me, mama
help me to escape from this lunatic inheritance
repossess me, mama, REPOSSESS
(mama: ha-ha-hee-hee-ha)
