Matilda Mother (2010 Mix) [2016 Remastered Version]

There was a boy whose name was Jim
 His friends, they were very good to him
 They gave him tea, and cakes and jam
 And slices of delicious ham
 Oh Mother tell me more
 Why'd'you have to leave me there
 Hanging in my infant air, waiting
 You only have to read the lines of
 Scribbly black and everything shines
 The chief defect of Henry King
 Was chewing little bits of string
 At last he swallowed some which tied
 Itself in ugly knots inside
 Wondering and dreaming
 The words have different meanings
 Yes they did
 ♪
 Finding she was left alone
 Went tiptoe to the telephone, 999
 Summoned the immediate aid
 Of London's Noble Fire Brigade
 For all the time spent in that room
 The doll's house darkness old perfume
 And fairy stories held me high
 On clouds of sunlight floating by
 Oh Mother tell me more
 Tell me more
