Does anyone know the lyrics to Amanda Palmers song – Look Mummy No Hands?
i actually adore this song also, i know the words off by heart, it was actually written by a female comedian called dilly Keane, I also love Camille o Sullivan’s version which i saw her sing live, really good..so heres the words: Remember the fair ma, the two of us there ma, by the merry-go-round I stood there entranced, as the bright colours danced, to the magical sound, Just a dollar for pleasure untold, and I rode in a world of scarlet and gold, Look mummy no hands, I’m riding the roundabout all by myself, Look mummy no hands, I called as I passed her faster and faster, Hold on tight darling, she called out in fear, but I laughed and pretended that I couldn’t hear, How careless we are when we’re young, Remember the years of the salt and the tears, do you recall? I hated you when you said be back by ten, I knew it all, Always asking to know what I’d done, but as far as I knew I was just having fun, Look mummy no hands, I know how to take good care of myself, Look mummy no hands, plea
