lyrics

hello mother june
i miss you more than the sands miss the rain here in phoenix, arizona
i know you miss me too
you just never learned to read or write
i swear i’ll find a better life

i’m doing fine
so ease your worried mind
sit back and close your eyes
yeah, yeah
this land is a paradise
and the people are so very nice
i’m happier than I’ve ever been in my whole life
in my whole life

cause there’s no line at the supermarket
the shelves are always stocked
no one robs or rapes or slaughters
you can leave your door unlocked
the butlers have their own butlers and they tip with priceless gems
the streets are paved with iphones and no one lives on them
and there’s always pristine water falling freely from the faucet
our moldy old flat would fit inside my new closet
all the billionaires were once squalid beggars
and all the supermodels were once grotesque lepers
so i’ll spend my nights bleaching toilets and scrubbing mildew
one day i’ll make a fortune and i’ll send it back home to you

hello mother june
i miss you more than the sands miss the rain here in phoenix, arizona
hello mother june
i miss you more than the sands miss the rain here in phoenix
