32: MAMA'S BOY

                   

I was sweeping up the dirt on the floor, it looked completely obscene.

From the feet of a natural hog, I'm sure you know what I mean.

 

I was polishing the door knob, it looked completely obscene.

From the hand of a fat slob, I'm sure you know what I mean.

 

All the windows should be broken, all the sinks could turn green.

Every dirty word I've spoken, is what I mean.

What I mean (8 times )

 

But it wasn't all as bad as it seems, man had good reason to be

Cause when I came home from the late shift,

Yours was the face that I'd see.  (3 times)

 

And nothin' matters but that you're by me,

And nothin' matters no!

And nothin' matters but that you're by me,

And nothin' matters, no-no nothin' matters, to me.

 

From what I gather that they think of me,

Something's the matter oh!

From what I gather that they think of me,

Something's the matter, no something's the matter, with me.

 

And everybody's got to grab hold

Of something that means something to them.

It's like we're climbing up a scaffold

Where the top is the bottoms best friend.

Never wanted to be set free, never wanted to

Be let be, without she, in charge of me.  (repeat to  And nothin')

Oh mother, cut the line and set me free.  (3 times )
