Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadows Lyrics

Have you seen your mother, baby,
Standing in the shadow?
Have you had another baby,
Standing in the shadow?
I'm glad I opened your eyes
The have-nots would've tried
To freeze you in ice
Have you seen your brother, baby,
Standing in the shadow?
Have you had another baby,
Standing in the shadow?
Well, I was just passing the time
I'm all alone, won't you give
All your sympathy to mine?

Tell me a story about
How you adore me
Live in the shadow,
See through the shadow
Live through the shadow,
Tear at the shadow
Hate in the shadow and
Love in your shadowy life
Have you seen your lover, baby,
Standing in the shadow?
Has he had another baby,
Standing in the shadow?
'Cause baby, where have you been
All your life?
Talking about all the people
Who should try anything twice
Have you seen your mother, baby,
Standing in the shadow?
Have you had another baby,
Standing in the shadow?
You take your choice at this time
The brave old world or the slide
To the depths of decline, of decline
