If you wanna girl to be your mother,
go find another, go find another one.
You only call me when your life's going under,
I'm not just a cover, not just a cover.
And then you wanna be the tough guy, with the appetite,
Well I'm not gonna stop you.
But if you're looking for a bed to recover on,
go find another one, go find another one.
And you're a grown boy, such a grown boy.
Don't expect the world to clean up for you,
'cause they don't have to
Don't expect the stars to line up for you,
they'll shine right past you.
You seem to think, you always get exactly what you ask for
But I'm not your mother.
If you wanna girl to be your mother,

You only call me when you're down on your dollar
I'm not just a cover, not just a cover.

You wanna eat your cake, don't ya?
But if you're looking for a bed to recover on,
go find another one, go find another one.
And you're a grown boy, such a grown boy.
Don't expect the world,
Don't expect the world;
