Little old lady, what are you going to say? (x2)
Chorus (Cm# Gm7 Fm7#):
Tell me, old lady, why do you pray?
Verse (E A B):
I saw you sorting through your photographs
Your nieces crowding round, they started to laugh
You concelead the presence of your shit stained walls
Your eldest son he never knocks at all
Pre- Chorus (G A B) & Chorus (Cm# Gm7 Fm7#):
Verse (E A B):
You are so old and no-one understands
Your social worker is a liberated man
He wants to take you to the old folks home
I think you're better off dying on your own
Pre- Chorus (G A B) & Chorus (Cm# Gm7 Fm7#):
