Playboy Mommy (Alternate Mix|2006 Remaster) - Tori Amos

Written by：Tori Amos

In my platforms

I hit the floor

Fell face down

Didn't help my brain out

Then the baby came

Before I found

The magic how

To keep her happy

I never was

The fantasy

Of what you want

Wanted me to be

But don't judge me so harsh

Little girl

So you got a playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

You wanna cross

That bridge all on your own

Little girl

They'll do you no harm

'Cause they know

Your playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

From here to birmingham

I got a few friends

I never was there

Was there when it counts

I get my way

You're so like me

It's seemed ashamed

Ashamed that I was

A good friend of American soldiers

I'll say it loud here by your grave

Those angels can't

Ever take my place

Don't judge me so harsh little girl

You got a playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name now

You wanna cross that bridge

All on your own

Little girl they'll do you no harm

'Cause they know

Your playboy mommy

But when you tell 'em my name

You tell 'em my name

I got a few friends

Ohoo no reason

Somewhere where the orchids grow

I can't find those church bells

That played when you died

Played gloria

Talkin' 'bout hosanah but

Don't judge me so harsh little girl

You got a playboy mommy come home

But when you tell those soldiers my name

And cross that bridge

All on your own

Little girl they'll do you no harm

'Cause they know

Your playboy mommy

But I'll be home

I'll be home

To take you in my arms
