Mothers - Steady Holiday

It’s coming down

They say this is the storm of centuries

Come together, help each other please

And take cover, find shelter

The camera’s off

No one will see my act of charity

I’ll share the awning

But what’s in it for me, well?

(Take cover, find shelter)

Hey!

Mothers in the rain

Do you think they’re keeping score

Or doing it for the fame?

These mothers in the rain

They’re just trying to keep their babies warm

Me, who I am when no one’s watching me

Isn’t always who I want to be (Take cover, find shelter)

And you, the rain is soaking

Through your baby’s shoes

So I’ll do anything you ask me to

As long as there is proof that I can claim

And attach it to my name

Mothers in the rain

Do you think they’re keeping score

Or doing it for the fame?

These mothers in the rain

They’re just trying to keep their babies warm

I don’t expect the world to congratulate me

But I need something

I don’t expect the gods to see every deed

But I need something

I want everyone to see my work and love me

I expect the rules to bend a little

And even in rain I want something to gain

Expecting, I’m expecting

Hey!

Mothers in the rain

Do you think they’re keeping score

Or doing it for the fame?

These mothers in the rain

They’re just trying to keep their babies warm

Take cover, find shelter
