Mamma said lyrics

Yesterday my mom said

Your hair’s too long

I know you’re right on

Go away and get it done

And don’t come back until it’s short

By the morning I’m afraid

I read to her the speech she made

And of course she cannot see

Why she always pick on me

Mamma stood, jumped for joy

For I was still her little boy

People say I should behave

Shouldn’t run around and rave

There’s a lot of good advice

To make me gentle, good and wise

Though my hair’s a bit too long

I know too well what’s right or wrong
