Single Mothers Lyrics


Single Mothers (are the Heroes of the Modern World)This is a message to the children
Of the Vanishing Man
Its time to live your life as free of all the hate you canSomebody left you. But they left you in the loving arms
Of somebody you probably dont appreciate at allSingle Mothers (are the Heroes of the Modern World)Shes not a model or an actress or a big athlete
Shes winning races none of them could even quite competeit might get tough at times
Wonderin how and why
Scrapin up the pennies til paydaySingle Mothers (are the Heroes of the Modern World)There is no big reward, academy awards
Dont get handed to the lady in the cheap dressSingle Mothers (are the Heroes of the Modern World)copyright 2008 Quazmo-Fate Publishing

Enjoy the lyrics !!!


"All I know is after hearing a few songs, I suddenly realized there was some secret tunnel that had opened directly between me and the music, like a bridge or a vein, a private passage, and what was coming through was way more than just music. It was like the first time tripping, when the door flew open and blew right off its hinges and will never close again! Not that I would want it to anyway, but you know. It was beyond powerful."


Lyrically inventive storytelling from a modern apartment-dwelling perspective

Abraham Cloud is an urban storyteller with a unique perspective and a gift for melody. Addressing predominantly homeless and shiftless themes, Abe's stories are detailed narratives told from a first hand point of view.

From the Salinas Valley of Northern California, to the streets of Los Angeles - raised on the stories of Steinbeck and the music of John Lennon, Abraham Cloud has a story to tell. In many ways reminiscent of the bar room music of Tom Waits, Abe's music covers the spectrum of musical styles and is difficult to pigeon-hole into a specific category.
Poignant and sincere, Abe conveys both tragedies and common events with his sense of humor firmly intact. An unconscious but effective marriage of unique stories with his own persona, Abe's personality and down-and-out humor are an integral part of every story that he tells.
"When I'm writing my best, desperate suicidal characters come out but they appear in almost surreal comic book form," Abe explains.

Often contemplative, frequently introspective and always insightful, Abe tells a story like no one else. Some feel that the root of his creativity seems to be a very troubled childhood. The result, intensely personal stories with universal appeal. If you're a fan of David Bowie, Loenard Cohen, Johnny Cash, Bright Eyes or Beck you might be quite nicely surprised by Abraham Cloud Read more on Last.fm.
