You're a grown woman |
|
Good at what you do |
|
I'm happy as hell |
|
When i'm alone whit you |
|
As you stroke my body |
|
And soothe my brow |
|
With everything |
|
That the law will allow |
|
I pray "don't turn out like your mother" |
|
(repeat) |
|
Im a grown man |
|
Over 21 |
|
I've got an ugly face |
|
But i have a lot of fun |
|
So if spill a glass |
|
Or break a dish |
|
I hear your voice |
|
And i make this wish |
|
Please "don't turn out like your mother" |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out like your mother |
|
I couldn't stand it |
|
And i'll be damned if |
|
I'm gonna live with another |
|
So many woman |
|
Give you so much |
|
Civilized ways |
|
And a gentle touch |
|
A different perspective |
|
That's as bright as a button |
|
But then you wake up one morning |
|
And it all counts for nothing |
|
Cos she's turned into her mother |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out like your mother |
|
I couldn't stand it |
|
And i'll be damned if |
|
I'm gonna live with another |
|
It's not the way she looks |
|
It's not the food she cooks |
|
Her kind of indignation |
|
Don't cause me trepidation |
|
But to live with a woman like this |
|
Would take a masochist |
|
Or someone who could get and could stay permanently pissed |
|
(repeat) |
|
You're a grown woman |
|
Good at what you do |
|
I'm happy as hell |
|
When i'm alone with you |
|
As you stroke my body |
|
And soothe my brow |
|
With everything |
|
That the law will allow |
|
Im a grown man |
|
Over 21 |
|
I've got an ugly face |
|
But i have a lot of fun |
|
So if spill a glass |
|
Or break a dish |
|
Don't get on to me |
|
Like some haranguing witch |
|
Don't turn out like your mother |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out |
|
Don't turn out like your mother |
|
I couldn't stand it |
|
And i'll be damned if |
|
I'm gonna live with another |
|
It's not her looks |
|
Or the way she cooks |
|
That wakes me up in a cold sweat |
|
It's just the knowledge |
|
That if it happened |
|
I couldn't drink enough to forget |
|
Don't turn out (etc) |
|
Don't end up (etc) |
