lyrics

I’ve been noticing
That the spot in mother’s skirt
Never really seems to go away

When do we say
Anything worth saying
Would we even blink if the roof caught on fire

Without mother’s watchful eye
The talcum powder in the pantry
Has expired

Oh baby can’t you see
Oh baby can’t you see
I’m the brown eyed daughter
Of the men who were never really listening
I’m the brown eyed daughter
Of the man that never really could be

I’ve been noticing
That the stain in the rug
Never really seems to fade

No matter how hard I try
To get the smell out
It always seems to stay

The cradle’s gathering dust
And there’s water
On the floor

Every time I try to scream
It’s just a whisper
Nothing more

Oh baby can’t you see
Oh baby can’t you see
I’m the brown eyed daughter
Of the men who were never really listening
I’m the brown eyed daughter
Of the man that never really could be
I’m the brown eyed daughter
Of the man that just wanted to be
