Old Lady Songtext
von Kevin Coyne

I saw you standing on Castle Corner
Your little coat it looked a warm one
I asked you what you′d had for your dinner
You said to me you never ate at all

Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?

I saw you sorting through your photographs
Your nieces crowding round, they started to laugh
You concelead the presence of your shit stained walls
Your eldest son he never knocks at all


Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?

You are so old and no-one understands
Your social worker is a liberated man
He wants to take you to the old folks home
I think you're better off dying on your own

Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?

Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Little old lady, what are you going to say?
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?

Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?
