[Too Old to] Go 'Way Little Girl lyrics

Don't go out in the street, little girl

and don't go out into town

You don't know who you'll meet, little girl

There are bad men around

Your mother, she's in love with you

She tells you, you shouldn't go with guys

So go to bed at ten, let your mama tuck you in

and turn on your Mickey Mouse night-light

Then you make it with your mind

Don't go out into town, little girl

Stay safe in the house, little girl

Your mother's stares, and the Enquirer's tales

keep you hiding, denying

Don't go into the park, little girl

You know those men are all the same

Stay inside alone after dark, little girl

Boys want just one thing

Don't talk about sex, you might get hexed

God'll punish you for your dirty mind

Now, there is no escaping, and you'd enjoy a raping

just to find out the facts of life

Mama says - Maintain your pride

Don't go out into town, little girl

Stay safe in the house, little girl

Your mother's stares, and the Enquirer's tales

keep you hiding, denying

Don't go into your mind, little girl

The windows, they're only made of glass

Don't let me catch you trying to pry, little girl

Mirrors of illusion tumble fast

You're too far gone for anyone

I'd like to help, but I can only sigh

You'd best maintain your mama's pride

'cause you lost yours the time

you obeyed when she said "Don't fraternize"

No place to hide

Don't go out into town, little girl

Stay safe in the house, little girl

Your mother's stares, and the Enquirer's tales

keep you hiding, denying
