"Mother"
(Roger Waters)

Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they'll like this song?
Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Oooooh aah, Mother should I build a wall?

Mother, should I run for President?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Oooooh aah, Mother am I really dying?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Momma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true.
Momma's gonna put all of her fears into you.
Momma's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She wont let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Momma's gonna keep baby cozy and warm.
Oooooh babe.
Oooooh babe.
Oooh babe, of course momma's gonna help build the wall.

Mother, do you think she's good enough
For me?
Mother, do you think she's dangerous
To me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
Oooooh aah, Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Momma's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
Momma won't let anyone dirty get through.
Momma's gonna wait up until you get in.
Momma will always find out where you've been.
Momma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
Oooooh babe.
Oooooh babe.
Oooh babe, you'll always be baby to me.

...Mother, did it need to be so high?
