Dan Amor - Sister Anne Lyrics
The beaten up old gates and old cracked paintsDistant lights that flicker out to seaWind swept promenades adorning all postcardsBirdsongs, playing dogs, and bumblebeesWe're winding up old clocks and dusting shellsEdmund stamps, cash to pay the billsThe sisterhood is thriving with new recruits arriving day by dayIn a steady stream, it's a dreamLet sister anne draw her conclusionsJust add the vestry, mow the lawnIt's the norm, don't let anybody tell you otherwisePebbles from the beach on windowsillsSip yesterday's communion wine untilSunset's quiet amazing, the chapel cats are lazingThey've been chasing little squeakers under pewsPay them the duesLet sister anne draw her conclusionsJust add the vestry, mow the lawnIt's the norm, don't let anybody tell you otherwiseAs the congregation rises a collective breath is drawnCoffee mornings, jumbo sails and for some the search goes onAs the voices lived as one so the lost is slowly drawnTo edmund's awnings, their adorning?Let sister anne cast her aspersionsJust add the vestry, mow the lawnIt's the norm, don't let anybody tell you otherwiseJust be wise
