Mother fear
Takut ibu

She was there the day you turned your cheek
Dia ada di sana pada hari Anda memutar pipi Anda
She led you from the fight
Dia memimpin Anda dari pertarungan
She was in your throat, when you couldn't speak
Dia berada di tenggorokan Anda, saat Anda tidak dapat berbicara
She sings harmony tonight
Dia menyanyikan harmoni malam ini
She knew just where you lived
Dia tahu persis di mana Anda tinggal
She brought the sedatives
Dia membawa obat penenang itu
She brought the whiskey and the beer
Dia membawa wiski dan birnya

Mother fear, Mother fear, Mother fear
Ibu takut, Ibu takut, Ibu takut

That peaceful feeling's so deceiving
Perasaan damai itu begitu menipu
You check the kids to see they're breathing
Anda memeriksa anak-anak untuk melihat mereka bernafas

And as you watch your house come tumbling down
Dan saat Anda melihat rumah Anda terjatuh
She stands beside you in the rubble
Dia berdiri di sampingmu di puing-puing
She'll be the first to recognize the sound
Dia akan menjadi orang pertama yang mengenali suaranya
Of the bursting of the bubble
Dari ledakan gelembung

And as you prance and pose
Dan saat Anda berjingkrak dan berpose
In your new emperor's clothes
Dalam pakaian kaisar baru Anda
She'll get the crowd to laugh and cheer
Dia akan membuat orang banyak tertawa dan bersorak
And here she comes
Dan ini dia datang

Mother fear, Mother fear
Ibu takut, Ibu takut
Year after year after year
Tahun demi tahun
