Mother Says Lyrics

Mother says, "Be careful
And don't stay out too long
Don't do things you shouldn't
Miss me when I'm goneDaddy says, "Not now, son
Well, just do the best you can
And you'll make out somehow, son
Be just like I am, just like I amYou won't need a reason
She don't let you choose
And so to make the game easy
Mother makes the rulesWe all know how the rules are
Changing from day to day
That's the breaks and I'm sorrySome of us must be going
Some of us have to stay
Some of us may be showing
Some just fade awayIt's sad to say it's the ending
All the feelings gone
If you don't mind pretending
You can come alongAnd Mother says she's ready

And if you have the time
She'll help us all to get steadyMake us all feel better
Make us all feel fine
Make us all feel better
Make us all feel fine
