MARY LAMB

"At all times one must view oneself as a potential lunatic. Otherwise one might commit an indiscretion, parenticide perhaps."

Right on. Right on. You never know when the dam will burst. You never know.

T'was a terrible line that she crossed for too heavy the burden she bore. She cared for her parents many long years 'Til she just couldn't take any more.

Mary Lamb (chorus)

She succeeded in killing her mother but she only wounded her dad, Before she was overcome by the guilt and went certifiably mad.

You never know when the dam will burst. You never know.

She succeeded in killing her mother but she only wounded her dad. Too bad.

With a lee and a la and la,la,la.(repeat)

T'was was a terrible line that she crossed And too heavy the burden she bore. She cared for her parents for many long years. She just couldn't take any more.

You never know when the dam will burst. Mary Lamb (chorus) She went certifiably mad.
