Mother's Day |
| Mother’s Day is coming now |
| Food stamps on the way |
| Brothers day is |
| It’s time to make his play |
| Say it one more time! |
| His babies are expecting now |
| Momma’s gonna be neglectin' now |
| Daddy’s comin' round |
| To take a momma on the town |
| Long rides cruise the main street |
| Sides and alleys too |
| Quick, slick tricks are being turned |
| By people like me and you |
| So this is what we have! |
| Say it one more time! |
| (Mother's Day) |
| Food stamps on the way |
| Brothers day is |
| It’s time to make his play |
| No foul weather’s accruing |
| And yet the welfare keeps a growin' |
| Taxes reach the skies |
| Welfare birth rates rise |
| to labor |
| Show no one any favor |
| Make them understand |
| The cost of helping hand |
| They’ll wash us out with glee |
| Politicians agree |
| But between you and me |
| The day we’ll never see |
| So this is what we have! |
| The man shakes his head |
| His city’s in the red |
| No money to be found |
| To clean up the bankrupted town |
| Renters are on the increase |
| Checks are on the bounce |
| Troubles never seem to decrease |
| And come pat on the ass |
| So this is what we have! |
| (Mother's Day) Mother’s Day |
| Mother’s Day |
| (Mother's Day) |
| (Mother's Day) |
| (Mother's Day) |
| Food stamps… |
| Brother … |
| (Mother's Day) Mother’s Day, Mother’s Day |
| (Mother's Day) …is coming |
| (Mother's Day) … Can you feel it? |
| Mother’s Day |
| (Mother's Day) |
| Feel it, feel it, feel it |
| Mother’s Day (Mother's Day) Mother’s Day |
| (Mother's Day) (repeat to end) |
