mother to the baby chicks

you made this world to look so nice

Bm E
a note we wrote the other day
A D
to any mice who pass this way
Bm E
on crumed and sugared countertop
A D
"we must insist your traffic STOP."

Bm E
every thing I thought I'd learned
A D
ambition and illusion turned
Bm E
to drawings on a loose leaf sheet
A D
of figs and fruits I couldn't eat
Bm E
what in her do I require?
A D
the face of gratified desire
Bm E
and what in me does she require?
A D A
the face of gratified desire
[Chorus]
D A
brownish spider, brownish leaf
D A
brownish spider, brownish leaf

brownish spider, brownish leaf
D A
confirms my deepest held belief.
[Chorus]
D A
no more spider, no more leaf
D A
no more spider, no more leaf
D C
no more spider, no more leaf
D
no more me, no more belief.
