Lyrics Mother's Intuition - Carly Simon

Mother's Intuition

It’s a mother’s intuition to make a little space
It’s her quiet mission to tidy up her place
A mother’s intuition is like a kangaroo’s
She hops around, she mops the ground, she fusses over you
A mother with her intuition
Will know just what to do
It’s a mother’s intuition to wash her baby
Well, she won’t forget behind the ears
And the extra soap suds on the tail
A mother’s into cleaning, she’ll clean until she’s through
She’s smart enough, she’s wise enough to add up two and two
A mother with her intuition
Will know just what to do
A mother has a feeling, she pays special attention
If someone is concealing, if someone’s playing tricks
She rubs and scrubs and scours the secrets
Until the answer clicks
Then she takes a brush and polishes your teeth
She’ll make you shine and sparkle new
Until she finds the real you underneath
Isn’t it charming?
Just mommy and little Roo
Fresh as a daisy
Sparkling just like new
It’s a mother’s intuition (Aha!)
It’s a mother’s intuition
It’s a mother’s intuition
