Oh! Mother, dear mother
Oh! Mother, dear mother
Why is the sky so dark?
Why does the air smell of roach powder?
Why is there no one in the park?
It’s nothing my darling daughter
Its nothing
This isn’t the way the world ends
The washing machine is on spiner
And I’m waiting to entertain my friends
But mother, dear mother please tell me
Why are all those nice people jumping into the creek?
It’s nothing, it’s nothing my darling
It’s nothing, it’s nothing
It’s really nothing at all
But mother dear mother please tell me
Before I go to bed
Why are my yellow curls falling, falling off my head?
Oh! mother, dear mother
Oh! mother, dear mother
Oh! mother, dear mother
Why is the sky so red?
Why is the sky so red?

Lyrics from The Whapshot Scandal by John Cheever
Well, does it live up to the hype? It's okay, not as good as 'Loops' or the 'Fenella' stuff; i doubt i'll be listening to it in full very often.
Her mojo is waneing in my 'umble opinion. vykr
The great underlying instrumentation paired with Florence's droll stream of consciousness lyrics make this album stand out. It feels so personal and confessional. Favorite tracks are Strong Feelings and Leafy. I've heard Scratchard Lanyard on alt radio and love that one as well. tofupotpie
