DIvided Mother and Child

Song written with Graham Browning for the Sunday Opening at Torre Abbey. I used to rehearse at Damien Hirsts House - Pilot Cottage in Greenwich - and thought the song would be about that, but then this came along - thanks to email words and conversations with Graham in Huddersfield.

DIVIDED MOTHER AND CHILD

Two halves don't make a whole
Two calves don't make a foal
Two cups don't make a bowl
Two heels don't make a sole

Two sticks don't make a pole
Two fish don't make a shoal
Two misses don't make a goal
Two sandwiches don't make a roll

Mother and child have a vested interest in surviving in the wild
Two into one won’t go
Divided Mother and Child

Two mice don't make a vole
Two hills don't make a mole
Two bells don't make a toll
Two keys don’t fit a keyhole

Mother and child have a vested interest in surviving in the wild
Two into one won’t go
Divided Mother and Child
Divided Mother and Child

Two words don’t make a scroll
Two good deeds don’t get you parole
Two frogs don’t make a tadpole
Drum’n’bass don’t make rock’n’roll

Mother and child have a vested interest in surviving in the wild
Two into one won’t go
Divided Mother and Child
Divided Mother and Child
