The Flaming Lips - Mother Please Don't Be Sad lyrics

Mother, please, don't be sad
I didn't mean to die tonight
But those robbers were so fast
Their guns and their anger and I
Lost the fight
The ambulance attendants did all they can
And I almost pulled through but in the end
I won't see you tonight
Mother, please, don't be sad

When we die (When we die)
When we're high (When we're high)
The gatekeeper hides, hides his eyes
Let's us by when we're high
When we die

So mother, please, don't be sad
It's only me that's died tonight
There's so much you still have
Remember all the others that are still alive
Their love will help you and so would I
Remember to let the dogs outside
'Cause, I won't be there tonight
Mother, please, don't be sad

When we die (When we die)
When we're high (When we're high)
The gatekeeper hides hides his eyes
Let's us by when we're high
When we die
