Pretenders - I'M A MOTHER lyrics
I'm a mother<br>Treat me like a mother<br>You wanna suck on my breast<br>It's no surprise you do<br>I'm the source and the force<br>You owe your life to, brother<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>I'm a mother<br>And I take like a mother<br>I understand blood<br>And I understand pain<br>There can be no life without it<br>Never doubt it<br>I'm a mother<br><br>I gave you all my money<br>To help the family<br>But what you do to me<br>Don't humiliate me<br>Remember<br>I'm a life-long member<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>I'm a mother<br>Treat me like a mother<br>In the middle of the night<br>I be deep in a dream<br>You fancy little company<br>You only have to scream<br>Loud, brother<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>I'm a mother<br>And I fake like a mother<br>I understand time<br>And it isn't on my side<br>But to service mankind<br>I have to suffer his pride<br>Like a mother<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>You say your protection<br>Is proof of your affection<br>If I need security<br>I'll keep a gun on me<br>Oh<br>Don't barter with me<br>Don't barter with me<br><br>Little sacrifices<br>Go straight to heaven<br>But hunting season's over<br>This is the 20th century<br>Oh<br>Don't barter with me<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>I'm a mother<br>And I ache like a mother<br>If there's a terrible crash<br>And bodies thrown everywhere<br>I'll wrap 'em up and carry 'em<br>If someone has to bury them<br>Brother<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh<br><br>Call upon mother<br><br>I'm the vessel of life<br>I got the trauma here to prove it<br>When it's time for me to labour for you<br>Everybody move it<br>Like a mother<br><br>Oh<br>Oh<br>Oh
