Mother of Invention Songtext
von Moira Smiley

Oh, what a pretty thing it is
I′ve been looking for it all my life
All my life I've been looking for this thing that I see
And here it now is, and I don′t know what to do with it
And I feel like I'm gonna break it
Or put it away and forget about it

Oh what a tragedy that would be
I feel like I am supposed to be
The mother of a new invention

I never built no bicycle
I never got no horse
I never got no locomotive
But I do have you of course
I've got you of course


Train pulls into the station
Train conductor tells me that it′s my stop
The place I longed to be all those years but was not
And here I now am, I don′t know what to do
I feel I wanna run away
Or get back on that train - take me away

Oh what a tragedy that would be
I feel like I am supposed to be
The mother of a new invention

I never built no bicycle
I never got no horse
I never got no locomotive
But I do have you of course
I've got you of course

Never gonna say that it hurts
I don′t wanna cry
Never gonna say that it hurts cause
Here am I, here am I
