The Cat’s Pajamas

Lyrics

[Intro] Who would've known? Who would've known? Who would've known? Who would've known? Who would've known? Who would've known? [Verse 1] To the lips of a failed writer To crash a cup of wine To throw a toast to an island that's slowly sinking [Chorus] And I can almost, hear you crying Hear you crying Momma, you are killing yourself Momma, what can I do? Momma, you are killing yourself Momma, what can I do? [Verse 2] And I'll be the one putting pins into my fingertips Only to erase the memories And to laugh when I think what my father did [Bridge] She sits She waits She toasts her prayers Not speaks of them She toasts her prayers Not speaks of them [Outro] Momma, you are killing yourself Momma, what can I do? Momma, you are killing yourself Momma, what can I do? She sits She waits She sits She waits
