Mother
I'm in a mood, so don't mess with me. :evilgrin:

Mother
Pink Floyd
The Wall


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?
Mother, should I build the wall?
Mother, should I run for President?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Is it just a waste of time?

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 won't let you fly, but she might let you sing
Momma's will keep Baby cozy and warm
Oooo Babe
Oooo Babe
Ooo 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?
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
Oooo Babe
Oooo Babe
Ooo Babe, you'll always be Baby to me

Mother, did it need to be so high?

1. I've been listening to The Wall a whole lot lately.
Dunno why. But man, what a record. What a record.

3. It says a few things very well.
I think it's time for a Wall Revival.

But then again, I also think it's a good time for a Hair Revival, and and Alice's Restaurant Revival. :7

I'm so down for a The Wall revival.

5. Ok, how fucking creepy is this -
My brother in law had this as his "dance with his mother" song at his wedding.

There were very many WTF faces at the reception, me being one of them.

6. Um, wow.
I think that can be filed in the Are-You-Fucking-Kidding-Me? category. For real. Time and place...time and place.

9. I admit to being witty...
but this time I wasn't. That is the real time and place. I asked my brother in law later if he ever listened to the whole Wall album, or watched the movie... he answered "there's an album/movie?"

Classic rock radio listeners, sheesh.

13. Wait a second...
...I knew you were being for real about the time and place.

However, in my first post, I used time and place as the expression, as in "there's a time and place for _"

Replying with the literal was, to me, witty. And hilarious. Unless of course you thought I was asking for the literal time and place, which I wasn't. But I assumed you knew that. :crazy:

10. I always get chills when it comes to PF
They so "get it".

There are so many different ways in which your childhood can fuck you up and it's not always just physical.

11. As soon as I saw the title to your post
I thought of that song before I even clicked on your thread.

I wonder what that says about me as a mother :scared:

16. I wouldn't worry too much
If you have the intelligence to ask that question, then I think you already have your answer.

14. Well, the telephone is ringing,
Is that my mother on the phone?
Telephone is ringing
Is that my mother on the phone?
The telephone is screaming
Won't she leave me alone?
The telephone is ringing
Is that my mother on the phone?

Well every girl that I go out with
Becomes my mother in the end
Every girl I go out with
Becomes my mother in the end
Well, I hear my mother calling
But I don't need her as a friend

Oh, Oh mother
Oh mother dear please listen
And don't devour me
Oh mother dear please listen
Don't devour me
Oh women please have mercy
Let this poor boy be
Oh mother dear please listen
And don't devour me
