lyrics

Maureen they called you
What goes on in your mind too
It was the way that you played
The way your bass drum laid, standing upright, it was alright, it was alright
I have no song to sing
about Mo and her drums

Oh Maureen Baby I'm sticking with you
I love your hypnotizing key punch too
With dark sunglasses to bring
The walls of feedback ring like Olatunji, and Bo Diddley, at the Factory
Made a record with Half-Japanese
Mo and her drums

Maureen tells the hippies
If you close the door (then leave)
Can you keep time for me?
Like you did at the Tea Party With Sterling and John, Nico and Gerard
Havin such fun
So let's sing a Doug Yule log
Mo and her drums
Sugarplum dreams tonight
