Songtext Caring The Residents

Caring

Once there were brothers who said that they loved her
Once there were brothers who worked at the zoo
Once there were brothers who said that they loved her
Once they petted her poodle named Pooh

(Once there were two)
With claws unretracted
A lion reacted
(Once there were two)
With claws unretracted
A lion reacted
(Once there were two)
Because she was bothered
(Together at the zoo)
While feeding her daughter
Because she was bothered
(Petting her Pooh)
We buried my father

(Then there was one)
With my mother aching
His brother replaced him
(Then there was one)
With my mother aching
His brother replaced him

(Now there is nothing)
Until he was bitten
Until he was bitten
(Now there is nothing)
Until he was bitten
By an infected kitten
(Now there is nothing)
So Mother retreated
From a life that repeated
(Sound of nothing)
And said she was sorry
(And more nothing)
But the night is so starry
