Mother, mother hows the family

I'm just calling to say hello

Hows the weather, how my father

Am I lonely, heavens no



Mother, mother are you listening

Just a phone call to ease you mind

Life is perfect, never better

Distant making the heart go 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

EVERYTHINGS FINE!



I'm freezing,

I'm starving,

I'm bleeding to death

EVERYTHINGS FINE!



Ya 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

Sure 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

EVERYTHINGS FINE!



I'm freezing,

I'm starving,

I'm bleeding to death

EVERYTHINGS FINE!



I miss you,

I love you.
