Mother mother Can you hear me 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 making the heart grow blind 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 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 feel it Around the corner I could make it any day Mother mother Can you hear me Yeah 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 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 I miss you I love you
