ROLLING STONES - Mother's Little Helper lyrics

rate me

What a drag it is getting old<br>Kids are different today,<br>I hear ev'ry mother say<br>Mother needs something today to calm her down<br>And though she's not really ill<br>There's a little yellow pill<br>She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper<br>And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day<br><br>Things are different today,<br>I hear ev'ry mother say<br>Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag<br>So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak<br>And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper<br>And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day<br><br>Doctor please, some more of these<br>Outside the door, she took four more<br>What a drag it is getting old<br><br>Men just aren't the same today<br>I hear ev'ry mother say<br>They just don't appreciate that you get tired<br>They're so hard to satisfy, you can tranquilize your mind<br>So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper<br>And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight<br><br>Doctor please, some more of these<br>Outside the door, she took four more<br>What a drag it is getting old<br><br>Life's just much too hard today,<br>I hear ev'ry mother say<br>The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore<br>And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose<br>No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper<br>They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day
