Mother Mother - Wisdom

From the Album: O My Heart

[cheesewizard]

The song really does prove itself by rhyming “fire” with “fire”

[ajpdubz]

I love his voice so much because it sounds neither female or male and it makes so much sense to me

[troubleclliff]

I look forward to seeing mother mother rise in popularity and get the credit they deserve.

[jamjam]

*that moment when you have smarts but not common sense so you don't have any wisdom, even though you have been told how to do a procedure=This song*

[kylefeeney]

the trumpet shit at the start makes me feel an emotion that doesn't exist but it's a really nice emotion

[prmnths]

damn, all these comments from years ago. wonder where y’all are now.

[mitsukunisen]

Old mother mother songs are always perfect for taking de-stress baths. ✨

[tigerscar]

I think this song is about gifted children, because gifted children can be smart, but typically aren't wise and often do things their own way or no way.

If you where a gifted kid you know what i'm talking about. (btw this song is a bop)


Edit)
for all of you people in the replies saying you have now have mental issues from being a gifted in school,
I get it and I get you.

[Latrimie]

Folding my clothes
And I feel useless
Don't think I know
How to do this

Once I was told
But like any misfit
I spit on some good advice

Out in the cold
And tryin' to make fire
Two sticks and stone
Still got no fire

Once I was shown
But I was inside then
And spit on that good advice

Wisdom, wisdom
Where can I get some?
Wisdom, wisdom

On the payroll
And digging up ditches
Dollar is low
So are my wages

Once I was told
Just how to get rich
But I spit on that good advice

Wisdom, wisdom
Where can I get some?
Wisdom, wisdom

Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh
oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Wisdom, wisdom

Where can I get some?
Wisdom, wisdom

I wanna trade my dimwits in for tips
Tips equipped with

Wisdom, wisdom

Take off my clothes
And I feel useless
Don't think I know
How to do this

Once I was told
But I liked to fidget
And miss out on good advice

2:30 this note is so beautiful oh my god-
And then the gradual inclusion of the trumpets, the steady drumbeat, and the occasional piano notes scattered in the background.

[maxskellington]

Does anyone else get huge Autumn vibes from this album?

[hatlessgojira]

I love how genderless his voice is its so satisfying and really calming somehow

[bee_mp]

1:50 is my fav little jazzy tune it hits sooo different

[eagerinspirit]

*A spectacular example of lyrical entertainment, only made by people born with the quintessence of originality. This absolutely wonderful, and I don't think it could be described with any other word besides perfection.*

[liamwarren]

how is it that every comment on every mother mother song is giving them praise, yet the most populare songs suffer larger percentages of complaints?

[arduousPopsicle]

This has got to be one of my all time favorites by them :'D

[themindset]

Man this song hits different. I've been a pretty sheltered kid so I feel way behind my peers in terms of understanding basic tasks, leaves me feeling kind of sad but at the same time I would get hostile whenever someone tried to help. Guess its time to figure shit out.

[domino-dude]

god that trumpet solo paired with the guitar at the beginning sounds so angelic
like an old friend teasing you about something you're actually sensitive about, like a sunset on the beach with your favorite person, like bitter-bittersweet memories of lost loves

[alfiecashmore-brown]

Nothing scratches my brain quite like mother mother

[forganforge]

Oh god the beginning reminds me of the movie Up holy shit the memories
