I know you wont get very far
With the back seat driver in the carpetbagger
With the dagger heart grabber stuck in your car

And the yard is grown to a hilt
And the money spent money spent where it went
Embarrassment, embarrassment to pay for the car

And the man who left you for dead
Hes the heart grabber back stabber double cheater wife beater
You dont need that man in your life

And you worked yourself to the bone
While the people say what they say
Its the neighbors anyway
They dont know whats good for your life

And I see your head hangs low
In the black shadow, half shadow
Living room is fitting is sitting room is fit for your crying

Dont be ashamed dont hide in your room
For the woman is, woman is the glorious victorious
The mother of the heart of the world

Djohariah Djohariah, etc.

And the time you held to the light
When water ran water ran with the strange attic
And when the walls were wet with your life

And you pushed yourself to the floor
And the spirit went where it went
Hovering discovering uncovering your life, on the floor

And the walls were wet with your love

For the mother is, the mother is the glorious victorious
The mother of the heart of the world

Dont be ashamed, dont hide from me now
For the woman is the woman is the glorious victorious
The mother of the heart of the world

Djohariah Djohariah, etc.

Dont be ashamed, dont cry in the bath
For its the story of, story of, morning glory story
Its the gloriole that comes to your path

There is a time when the lights will arise
For the mother is, the mother is the glorious victorious
The mother of the heart of the world

Go on! Little sister! Go on!
For your world is yours, world is yours
All the wilderness of world is yours to enjoy

Go on! Little sister! Go on! Little sister!
For your world is yours, world is yours
All the wilderness of world is yours

Go on! Little sister! Go on! Little sister!
For your world is yours, world is yours
All the wilderness of world is yours

Go on! Little sister! Go on!
For youre beautiful, beautiful
All the fullness of the world is yours

  • I want to name my daughter Djohariah!

  • The "accessible" bit is utterly brilliant, but so is the jaw-dropping first part. It's an epic. It's hard picking a favorite Sufjan Stevens song--I have about thirty now all vying for favorite--but my god this song tugs at the heartstrings of both sadness and wonder in such an extraordinary way. Best artist of the past three decades, bar NONE.

  • I think I just found a new favorite song.

  • so is this a jazz fusion?

  • 2:36 is where is smooths out... but i like the erratic guitar intro too

  • so beautiful.. 'all the fullness of the world is yours'

  • Skip to 2:36 for the accessible bit - I love the whole thing though, thanks for posting.
