Left Hand Lost

Song	Left Hand Lost
Artist	Dory Previn
Album	Mary C. Brown And The Hollywood Sign

	作曲 : Previn
	The left hand is
	We always say
	The demon devil's side
	The left had does
	The dirty work
	The shameful things
	You hide
	Judas kissed the left cheek of christ
	It's satan's special mark
	There were no left-footed animals
	Allowed on noah's ark
	Left-handed people are impure
	They go against the grain
	Left-handed children
	Play with themselves
	And drive themselves insane
	I was born left-handed
	But the nuns where i went to school
	They said it wasn't right so they
	Broke me of it
	And now i'm right-handed
	Just like i'm supposed to be
	And now
	I'm fine
	I'm just fine
	Really
	Really
	But sometimes
	I get so low so low
	Sometimes
	I get so depressed
	As though i lost
	A part of me that loved me
	The part that knew me best
	The child in me that cried
	To be cherished
	The side of me
	That tried to be my friend
	In the heart of me was living
	And loving
	But it perished
	And i'll never be
	Completely me again
	My right had fills the china teacups
	And needlepoints with old maid aunts
	My right hand clings to rosary beads
	And waters dying plants
	But it's never painted a picture
	Nor has it run for president
	My left hand
	Might have done these things
	If its roots
	Had not been bent
	A sculptor
	A poet
	It might have been
	Instead of a useless thing
	To decorate with bangles and bracelets
	And my mother's wedding ring
	Something
	It might have accomplished
	Or nothing
	But now i'll never know
	Oh
	My lost
	My left
	My natural hand
	My god
	I miss you so
