Moloko - Mother Lyrics
Mother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterShow meEmpathyCalifornian sensibilitiesAll my problems spring from my troubled upbringingWe need to go right back to the beginningDisposessed from the outsetWhat you need is precisely what you getMother dear it should be you thats sitting hereOn this couch.Ouch.Mother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterOn my shoulder youre a chipOn my foot youre a blisterMother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterSo tell me what am I gonna doThey told me that maybe I could sueAnd oh how the manyWere corrupted by the fewSo I dance the mambo and the cha cha chaI run you over in my beautiful carDearest darling mummy dearestWe cant bear to have you near us.Mother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterOn my shoulder youre a chipOn my foot youre a blisterMother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterThe blame lies in the family nameIts not my fault I did as I was taughtEscape to mongolia or timbuktuI know somehow, somewhereIll be bumping into youYou see, Im blamelessI had a mother who was shamelessNo wonder my life collapsedSee Im aimlessWith all the analysisI think Im having a relapseMother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterOn my shoulder youre a chipOn my foot youre a blisterMother dear youll never be my sisterSeek the advice of a solicitorMother dear youll never be my sisterOn my shoulder youre a chipOn my foot youre a blisterWe love youWe doWeve taken adviceWe may sueYou see Im blamelessI shall remain namelessYou cant run away from the pastI know what her game isBut Ive forgotten what my name isIm just too frightened to askTell me what did you expectWhat you made is precisely what you getPrecisely what you getPrecisely what you get
