Mother Mother

Mother, mother, how's the family?

I'm just callin' to say hello

How's the weather? How's my father?

Am I lonely? Heavens know

Mother, mother, are you listenin'?

Just a phone call to ease your mind

Life is perfect, never better

Distance makin' the heart grow fond

When you sent me off to see the world

Were you scared that I might get hurt?

Would I try a little tobacco?

Would I keep on hikin' up my skirt?

I'm hungry, I'm dirty

I'm losin' my mind, everything's fine!

I'm freezin', I'm starvin'

I'm bleedin' to death, everything's fine!

Yeah, I'm workin', makin' money

I'm just startin' to build a name

I can feel it around the corner

I could make it any day

Mother, mother, can you hear me?

Sure I'm sober, sure I'm sane

Life is perfect, never better

Still your daughter, still the same

If I tell you what you wanna hear

Will it help you to sleep well at night?

Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear?

Now just cuddle up and sleep tight

I'm hungry, I'm dirty

I'm losin' my mind, everything's fine!

I'm freezin', I'm starvin'

I'm bleedin' to death, everything's fine!

I miss you, I love you
