Mother Lyrics
[Intro]
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
Welcome to the Starlight Ballroom
One, three, four
[Verse 1]
Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they'll like this song?
Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Ooh, Mother, should I build the wall?
Mother, should I run for president?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mama, will they put me in the firing line?
Ooh, is it just a waste of time?
[Chorus]
Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing
Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
Of course mama's gonna help build the wall
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen
Welcome to the Starlight Ballroom
One, three, four
[Verse 1]
Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they'll like this song?
Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Ooh, Mother, should I build the wall?
Mother, should I run for president?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mama, will they put me in the firing line?
Ooh, is it just a waste of time?
[Chorus]
Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing
Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
Of course mama's gonna help build the wall
[Verse 2]
Mother, do you think she's good enough
For me?
Mama, do you think she's dangerous
To me?
Mama, will she tear your little boy apart?
Ooh, Mother, will she break my heart?
[Chorus]
Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry
Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you
Mama won't let anyone dirty get through
Mama's gonna wait up until you get in
Mama will always find out where you've been
Mama's gonna keep baby healthy and clean
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
Ooh, babe
You'll always be baby to me
[Outro]
Mother, did it need to be so high?
