Baby Song - The Raincoats

Animal function

Shaped by culture

Animal function

Motherhood in culture

My body beats to new rhythms

To new rhythms of my own

Wholeness with nature (Don't look away, don’t look away, look away)

Can I reject it?

(Don't look away, look a- look a- look away)

Can I accept it as my own?

(Don't look away, look away, look a- look a- look

away)

Animal function

Motherhood in culture

Maternal power and the value of caring

Obscured by history

Naturally

A choice to stretch

A limit to lose

A limit to choice to stretch or lose (Baby, baby, baby x 7)

Don’t look away

Don’t push me away

Don’t look away

Don’t push me away

Awakening

Moon mother’s transformers

Changing it all about

Inside out

And outside in

And upside down

And downside up (x2)

(murmuring)

Don’t look away (Don't look away)

Don’t push me away (Don't push me away)

Don’t look away (Don't look away)

Don’t push me away (Don't push me away)
