Mama, we sail
Mama, we fright
Mama, we stone
Mama, we night
Mama, I see
Mama, you hide
Mama, we sail
Mama, we night
Like weeds at roots of trees
Pillows in the sheet
Mama bear
Mama bear and me
Mama, you hurt
Mama, you smile
Mama, you hope
Mama, you hide
Mama, we run
Mama, we fight
Mama, I sail
Mama, I night
Like rungs into the dark
The paws that lose the bar
The cub can only swim so far
Like weeds at roots of trees
Pillows in the sheet
Mama bear
Mama bear and me
Dear cub of mine
Forgive me for disturbing your hibernation
And dragging you through the curtained street tonight
And thank you, mine
For following the rules of your mama bear’s game
You remember how you sailed from me
In your cotton ocean
How you’d hold on tight while stormy waves engulfed you
Well, baby bear, let’s play one last time
Hold my hand, you be good you be
Baby bear, let’s play one last time
Hold my hand, you be good you be still

“A diverse, deep-vein double album which vaults her into contention as one of the most insightful and pertinent songsmiths, anywhere, to have emerged in recent years.”
Record Collector
Shambles Sails the Clockwork Sea is a brilliant collection of very enjoyable tracks, especially recommended if you fancy having a laugh/indulging in some political subversion! Louise Connell
If you've come this far then you'll no doubt have heard of 'Artificial Life from a Digital Sea'. It was one of the most talked-about unsigned releases in Scotland last year and is veryvery braw. Louise Connell
Gonzo. Passion. The Ming Vase. Haunting and beautiful. Every listen brings a new favorite.
Do something like this again, Miss Emma. Please let the answer be yes. Please let the answer be yes! alien9
