Roisin Murphy - Momma's Place lyrics

rate me

So you think you know it all,

well that's just the arrogance of youth.

I've been there and I've done it baby,

I'm telling you the truth

Your Momma was a tear-away

I used to think I knew it all

Thought I could play the game and not get played, no

But then the fall

Don't you go pulling a fast one

Used to be an awful rascal

You think you invented being bad

I used to be a real ruffian

Had to become a tough one

Do you think you invented being bad?

Don't you go pulling a fast one

Used to be an awful rascal

You think you invented being bad?

I used to be a real ruffian

Had to become a tough one

Don't think you invented being bad

I bet you think I look respectable

You should have seen me in my prime

You'd have thought that I was headed for, oh yeah

A life of crime

I bet you think that you're the clever one, clever one

The one that got a way

Well I've seen them come

And seen them go oh yeah

But I remain

I was sweet as I could be

I've earned respectability

Do you know I have a history?

You won't get to pull the wool

Over my eyes

Fool, if you think you'd make a fool me

Nothing you do

*Remotely new*

Get out the club

When I was young

In younger days

I went astray

And might I say

Its all a haze

Its all been done

Your brand new craze

It all begun

At Momma's place

Don't you go pulling a fast one

Used to be an awful rascal

You think you invented being bad

I used to be a real ruffian

Had to become a tough one

Don't think you invented being bad

Don't you go pulling a fast one

Used to be an awful rascal

You think you invented being bad

I used to be a real ruffian

Had to become a tough one

Don't think you invented being bad

(know it all. Know nothing at all)

Don't you go pulling a fast one

Used to be an awful rascal

You think you invented being bad

I used to be a real ruffian

Had to become a tough one

Don't think you invented being bad
