When I See Mommy, I Feel Like a Mummy - Captain Beefheart & The Magic Band

oh woe — when i see mommy

i feel like a mummy

i feel like a mummy

i feel like a mummy

gonna wrap her up every time i see her

every time i see her

i want to grab her

pull her up to me

till i look through her

but she moves so fast

that i can’t even see her

her interest fades

like breath on a mirror

every time i see her

every time i see her

i try to grab her

and the wind from my hand

blows away like a feather

every time i grab her

every time i grab her

oh — when i see mommy

i feel like a mummy

gonna wrap her up gonna wrap her up next time i see her

next time i see her

i’m gonna seize her

then i’m gonna freeze her

it’s the only way

that i might get to see her

gonna wrap her up — oh, mommy

oh, when i see mommy

i feel like a mummy

i feel like a mummy

i feel like a mummy

every time i see her

every time i see her

i want to grab her

pull her up to me

till i look right through her

but she moves so fast

that i can’t even see her

her interest fades

like a breath on a mirror

like a breath on a mirror

like a breath on a mirror

like a breath on a mirror

like a breath on a mirror

yeah, when i see mommy

i feel like a mummy

i feel like a mummy
