Her life gets smaller in his eyes
|
And he wonders if he thinks he should cry
|
Oh mother the colour's gone and left your hair
|
And he wonders if he thinks he should care
|
She told him how to play a guitar
|
She told him how to be a star
|
But mother were you really there
|
|
My friend don't speak he's such a mixed up boy
|
I wonder if she sold him his toys
|
A kiss on the cheek a conversation decoy
|
In his cute little corduroys
|
Oh she taught him how to win the game
|
She taught him everything is your name
|
Oh mother did you have to destroy
|
Mother if you really cared
|
You'd talk to him cry for him
|
All you every did was dream
|
All you ever said was be cool be cool be cool
|
And I think you made a mess of his life
|
And I think he made a mess of your life
|
And I think it made a mess of my life
|
|
Mother if you really cared
|
You'd talk to him cry for him
|
All you every did was dream
|
All you ever said was be cool be cool be cool
|
And I think you made a mess of her life
|
And I think she made a mess of your life
|
And I think it made a mess of my life
|
I think you made a mess of my life
|
I think you made a mess of my life
