Big Girl - Mother Tongue
00
Copied!
{Verse 1}
You see me
On the other side of a cracked screen
Ripped jeans and bleeding
With the suntan from the TV
Just in my mother tongue
{Pre-Chorus}
The static is a language
And I start to understand it
Talks in your mother tongue
Ahh!
You wonder if your life was automatic
Programmed by your mother tongue (oo-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
{Chorus}
But that's not really me
Denial is a pretty thing
Live beyond the mercury
I watch you in
{Verse 2}
Sincerely
I have always had this vanity inside me
Frightening
To externalize
Ahh!
{Pre-Chorus}
Lovely as you are
Helpless as a baby
Pray to your mother tongue (oo-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
Romancing your mother tongue (oo-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
Dancing with your mother tongue (oo-la-la, la-la, la-la, la-la)
{Chorus}
But that cannot be me
Denial is a precious thing
Born again from what you breed
I watch you fade
{Outro}
Make me sleek and clean
Feel my touchscreen
Feed me batteries
Eat my memory
Make me sleek and clean
Feel my touchscreen
Feed me batteries
Eat my memory
{Instrumental Outro}
