Mother, Mother (everything's Fine)

Mother, mother, how's the family?

I'm just calling to say hello

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

Am I lonely? Heavens, no

Mother, mother, Are you listening?

Just a phone call to ease your mind

Life is perfect, never better

Distance maketh the heart grow wise

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 hiking up my skirt?

1-I'm hungry, I'm dirty, I'm losing my mind

Everything's fine

I'm freezing, I'm starving, I'm bleeding to death

Everything's fine

Yeah, I'm working, making money

I'm just starting to build a name

I can't feel it down 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 want to 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

(repeat 1)

I miss you, I love you
