"Little Digger" lyrics - LIZ PHAIR

Dig little digger, don't be shy
You saw your mother with another guy
You think you'll tell her that she's one of a kind
You say "my mother is mine"
You put your trucks up on the bed next to him
So he can get a better look at them
You say "this one's my favorite one, this one you can't have,
I got it from my dad" you say "i got it from my dad"

Now you're thinking little thoughts about it
Taking every inch of them in
What does it mean when something changes how
It's always been
And now in your head you keep repeating the line
"My mother is mine.."

I've done the damage the damage is done
I pray to God that I'm the damaged one
And all these grown up complications that you don't Understand
I hope you can some day I hope you can...

And now your thinking little thoughts about it
Taking every inch of them in
What does it mean when something changes how
It's always been
And in your head you keep repeating the line
"My mother is mine.."

And now you're thinking little thoughts about it
Taking every inch of them in
What does it mean when something changes how it's always Been
And in your head you keep repeating the line
"My mother is mine..."
