When my body can no longer make a mother of me Will I change my notion of time And will you change your mind On me and I'll be something to leave behind
When I scatter ashes in the river's water Will I change my notion of family How long before I'm happy Again and I see those who still surround me
I will rule the world, rock the cradle with a babeless hand Just watch me build castles in the hourglass sand Might still hear screaming in the hallway From the empty pram In my mind I didn't put it there It was some othеr fucker's plan
I wanna age with excitеment Feel my world expand Go grey and feel delighted Don't just look sexy on a man Just let me play it out Just let me play it out
When I get there, a place in time Where life brings me elsewhere Will I change my notion of self In sickness and good health I promise to love and cherish myself
I will rule the world, rock the cradle with a babeless hand Just watch me build castles in the hourglass sand Might still hear screaming in the hallway From the empty pram In my mind I didn't put it there It was some other fucker's plan
I wanna age with excitement Feel my world expand Go grey and feel delighted Don't just look sexy on a man Just let me play it out Just let me play it out
