Future Of The Left - Distant Jabs At A Soul lyrics

Otis first noticed The unusual mark on his neck when he was 42 He was married to a lady Though that term is generous Who looked like a nesting doll having s** with its own shadow The pain of being born had never left her shoulders Ain't that something to do with being Catholic?
