I'm Your Grandmother

 



I'm Your Grandmother

 This is the next song in the possession album: the me-character's grandma appeared in the previous song, and it looked like she was about to say something to Timmy, Bobby, me, and Father O'Malley. In this song, you get to hear what she says to them all.

The lyrics are:

I'm your grandmother / I live up above
Sister, and brothers, I come bearing love
I'm a spirit, so / I have perspective that
You guys do not know / so, let's have a chat

Human life is something you won't understand
Until you make it up into Heaven's land
I know it is a suck-fest, and you feel stuck
And you wish you had been blessed with better luck
I can say now that I am a spirit with a clue
Of the lay of the land, and a greater point of view
You wish that you had not been born human cuz it sucks
You are trapped in the thought that you are so very fucked

I'm your grandmother / I live up above
Sister, and brothers, I come bearing love
I'm a spirit, so / I have perspective that
You guys do not know / so, let's have a chat

Right now, you have the perspective of crawling bugs
With no clue of what it's like to be up above
Feeling blue, in the collective of snails and slugs
With no view, you feel like insects, but I'm a dove
I'm a bird, and I fly up above the mountain tops
It sounds absurd, but when you die, you'll have vision that won't stop
Seeing reality and you'll know the fucking deal
Of why we came to be human beings – this is for reals

I am a spirit, and I have a greater view
Cuz I live up above, and now I will tell you:

I can't give you every single detail, though
But you will want to see the rest of the show
I can't tell you everything that's behind the veil
Between life and death, not before you have set sail
For the spirit world that I am now living in
I'll be clear, telling you now would...be a sin
But I can tell you one thing, so listen close
As a spirit who sings with the heavenly host
Being human's upsetting, but in the end
You'll be you again, and get to go home again

Here's the alternative player thingy, in the case the one up top doesn't work on your portable electronic device, laptop, or desk top computer:
