Sister Mary Songtext
von Big Engine

Sister Mary′s got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day

Woke up this morning to the pouring rain
Sister Mary cries on the floor
She drinks her coffee as she tried to explain
What she stayed up all night for
She says you know how it feels and what it means
To crash the sky, to fly so high on the wings of my dreams
Well every diamond shines but every flower fades
And Sister Mary won′t be the same

Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day


She checked her make-up and I lit her cigarette
She says mirror mirror on the wall
Well who′s the fairest child with a soul full of regret
And nothing thrills me anymore
She says remember when your friends called me the queen
We used to hang around, make whistle sounds back when I was 16
So afraid to hear what they′re calling today
Yeah Sister Mary, oh what a shame

Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary′s got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day

And I promise I remember
Days of poetry and pain
She swore that she would never surrender
Sister Mary won't be the same

Sister Mary
Sister Mary′s got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary′s got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary's got some strange medicine lately
Keeps her up all night, makes her sleep all day
Sister Mary
