This song is not about her literal mother, but her 'mother' church, the Catholic church. The abuse of children by priests and nuns, and the structure generally putting the clergy as an intermediary to God rather than the believer having a personal relationship, have made her feel alienated from the religion she loves.

I am surprised this is not higher up Sinead's hit list on this site. This has always absolutely grabbed me.
