Mommy says, it's safe at home
Mommy says, don't go out tonight
Mommy says, she isn't good for you
Mommy says, your friends have a bad influence
On you
Mommy says, drink all of your soup
Mommy says, boy, do as I say
Otherwise, I won't give you money no more
But I don't care I'm 21
And free I will be
I don't really miss her
I don't really hate her
Just don't want to see her
Even though I care
She asks: "where did you sleep"
Please stop acting like a creep
Having a child is a hell of a weight
A little too big for you
To bear
Mommy says, look at your brother
He didn't get kicked out of school
On Sunday he sings in the choir
For your sins I'll be saying a prayer
The son I love
I don't really miss her
I don't really hate her
Just don't want to see her
Just don't want to see her
Mother, please let me out
I wanna see the world
How it shines
Woman, I am the world
Please let the boy out
I'd like to meet him
