She borders the pavement
flanks avenues
parades pass white glove attended by
my mother the war
she'll raise a shaft
lift a banner
toss a rose
my mother the war
she's made every effort
to salvage the few
bought fourteen liberty bonds
my mother the war
mother the war
she knows every neighbor
chats at their doors
compare econosize electric appliances
my mother the war
share tea and a seat
by my cradle with
my mother the war
mother the war
caressing the globe
touch on his isle
she wrings hands in pensive waiting
my mother the war
haunts her doorway
begs her postman
is there word for
my mother the war
momentos of distant vigil
three years each tour
hands of god enfold him prayed
my mother the war
mother the war
in bitter defiance
she's spitting the corps
she's wet a brood short league for combat
my mother the war
well acquainted with sorrow
left millions in grief
my mother the war
fold
laced
carrion
blood
soaked
robes
mother the war
10,000 Maniacs are an American alternative rock band formed in Jamestown, New York, in 1981. The band's name comes from a phrase in a poetry book by Emily Dickinson. The original lineup included Natalie Merchant (vocals), John Lombardo (guitar), Dennis Drew (keyboards) and Steven Gustafson (drums). Their sound was characterized by catchy melodies, poetic lyrics and complex arrangements that blended folk, alternative rock and pop elements. After a series of independent albums, 10,000 Maniacs achieved mainstream success with the album *In My Tribe* (1987), which included the single *These Are Days*. Their subsequent album, *Blind Man's Zoo* (1989), reached number 2 on the Billboard 200 chart. In 1993, Natalie Merchant left the group to pursue a successful solo career. 10,000 Maniacs continued to record and perform with various members, releasing albums such as *Campfire Songs* (1997) and *The Wishing Chair* (2002). Among the band's most representative songs are: *These Are Days*, *What's the Matter Here*, *Candy Everybody Wants*, *Like The Weather*.
