J. Robot The voice is classic, the song structure is smart, and the lyrics are full of wit (the good kind, not the oh-look-how-snarky-and-clever-I-am kind). You'll fall in love with this song.

lyrics

We'll make room in our house for our mothers
fools of the obnoxious birds that mocked us
decorate our mantle with the feathers
room in our house for our mothers

the fish can't yell, his mouth too full of water
the sea won't help, don't see why it should bother
the waves wrap round my neck just like a collar
if I go down, king Neptune gains a daughter

we'll make room in our house for our mothers
fools of the obnoxious birds that mocked us
decorate our mantle with the feathers
room in our house for our mothers

Isabella dressed in paisley
overturned her mother's pot of daisies
they each looked to the other in amazement
as they sprouted roots and grew right from the pavement

we'll make room in our house for our mothers
fools of the obnoxious birds that mocked us
decorate our mantle with the feathers
room in our house for our mothers

as they made room for knobby knees and hornet stings
and cleared off their bedside table for photos and toys
that remind them of who you were
before you grew too old to remember

and I may leave before the dinner bell rings
and I don't know if I'll ever come back over
but here in my house, where two birds of a feather, we stick well together
I'll always keep room for my mother
