O Superman (Live at the Phoenix Festival, Long Marston, 20th July, 1997)

Oh, Superman
Oh, judge
Oh, mom and dad
Mom and dad

Oh, Superman
Oh, judge
Oh, mom and dad
Mom and dad

Hi, I'm not home right now
But if you'd like to leave a message
Just start talking at the sound of the tone

Hello? This is your mother
Are you there?
Are you coming home?

Hello?
Is anybody home?

But you don't know me
But I know you
I've got a message
To give to you
Here come the planes

So you better get ready
Ready to go
You can come as you are, pay as you go
Pay as you go

And I said, "Okay, who is this really?"
And the voice said

This is the hand, the hand that takes
This is the hand, the hand that takes
This is the hand, the hand that takes
Here come the planes

And they're American planes
Made in America
Smoking or non-smoking?

And the voice said
Neither snow nor rain
Nor gloom of night
Shall stay these couriers from the swift completion
Of their appointed rounds

'Cause when love is gone
There's always justice
And when justive is gone
There's always force
And when force is gone
There's always mom (hi mom)

So hold me, mom
In your long arms
So hold me, mom
In your long arms
In your automatic arms
Your electronic arms (in your arms)

So hold me, mom
In your long arms
Your petrochemical arms
Your military arms
In your electronic arms

That was Gail Ann Dorsey with Laurie Anderson song "O Superman"
