Somebody Get My Mom Lyrics


Woke up today in a van
Traded my pillow for a miller lite can
And in two more days, I lose the guitar
That I hawked
Slurped down a beer then one more
Twelve ounces later, I was outside your door
And the pebble I threw
Was probably more like a rock
Then I fell, skinned my knee
Broke my glasses, got stung by a bee
I lost my wallet and my car keys too
And to make matters worse
I’m coming down with the flu
Somebody get my mom
'Cause I think something's broken again
And I don't want to be just friends
I said thanks for the ride, I’ll just limp back inside
'Cause I don't want you to see me cry

I just want my mom
Somebody get my mom
I just want my mom
Get my mom
Authorities came, I guess I was gone
Next thing you know, I’m passed out on the lawn
And boy did I wake up fast
With a rottweiler's tongue in my mouth
I wrote you a note but it got soaked
When I went deep sea fishing
And I fell out of the boat
And got caught on the trout line
Wasn't found for three days
Then I fell, skinned my knee
Broke my glasses, got stung by a bee
I lost my wallet and my car keys too
And to make matters worse
I’m coming down with the flu
Somebody get my mom
'Cause I think something's broken again
And I don't want to be just friends
I said thanks for the ride, I’ll just limp back inside
'Cause I don't want you to see me cry
I just want my mom
Somebody get my mom
I just want my mom
Get my mom
M O M M Y she makes me cobbler 'cause I hate pie
She coached baseball when we needed her
We lost every game but to her came it first
And I’m so glad that she met my dad
I wouldn't be here if she never had
Let's go
I guess this is it, the end of the song
Just my luck nobody sang along
I guess I'll put down this guitar
And keep the mongoose back home
Somebody get my mom
'Cause I think something's broken again
And I don't want to be just friends
I said thanks for the ride, I’ll just limp back inside
'Cause I don't want you to see me cry
I just want my mom
Somebody get my mom
I just want my mom
Get my mom
M O M M Y

Bowling for Soup (acronym: BFS, or sometimes B4S) is a pop punk band based in Denton, Texas (but originally from Wichita Falls, Texas) formed in 1994 from the ruins of an old metal band. Quoting Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, "we wanted to make happy music". They're known for their often humorous lyrics, upbeat guitar riffs, and Jaret's distinctive voice.

They are best known for their singles "Girl All The Bad Guys Want" in 2002 on Drunk Enough To Dance which was nominated for a 2003 Grammy Award for "Best Pop Performance by a Group or Duo" and "1985" (originally written by Mitch Allan of SR-71) in 2004 on A Hangover You Don't Deserve. Speaking with Songfacts about "Girl All The Bad Girls Want" in a 2010 interview, Reddick said: "'Girl All The Bad Guys Want' was my very first co-write ever, and me and Butch Walker sat in a room and literally wrote that song in 30 minutes. I mean, it was done."

The band's name is derived from comedian Steve Martin's "Bowling for Sh*t" routine from his 1978 comedy album, Wild and Crazy Guy, itself a reference to Bowling for Dollars. Jaret Reddick has also stated that at the end of his last performance with his old band one of the members came on stage and proclaimed "Come back next week when we play with our new band... Bowling For Soup!". This was supposed be to be joke name, but since they couldn't think of anything better the name stuck. Their single '1985' can be found on the UK and the Norwegian editions of Singstar Rocks for the PS2.

They have also became hits on Radio Disney with edits of "1985", "Punk Rock 101", "High School Never Ends", and the inclusion of their version of "I Melt With You" in the Disney movie "Sky High". They have also written and recorded "Today Is Gonna Be A Great Day" as the theme song for Disney's "Phineas and Ferb"

Band Lineup:
Jaret Reddick - Lead Vocals/guitar
