Mother's Little Helper
The Rolling Stones
What a drag it is getting old "Kids are different today,"I hear every mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down And though she's not really ill, There's a little yellow pill She goes running for the shelter, of a mother's little helper And it helps her on her way,Gets her through her busy day "Things are different today,"I hear every mother say Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag So she buys an instant cake, And she burns her frozen steak And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And to help her on her way, Get her through her busy day Doctor please Some more of these Outside the door She took four more What a drag it is getting old "Men just aren't the same today, I hear every mother say They just don't appreciate that you get tired They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilise your mind So go running for the shelter Of a mother's little helper And for to help you through the night, Help to minimise your plight Doctor please Some more of these Outside the door She took four more What a drag it is getting old "Life's just much too hard today,"I hear every mother say The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore And if you take more of those,You will get an overdose No more running to the shelter, Of a mother's little helper They just helped you on your way, Through your busy dying day hey !
