I wanna tell you 'bout my mountain home
Where all the ladies name's are Joan
Where husband works back late at night
Hopes are up, for trousers down, with the hostess on a business
flight
Taxi in a Mercedes drive
I hope that driver's comin' out alive
The garden it is Dorseted, that lady she's so corseted
She's got 15 ways to lead that boy astray
Thinks he's one and only, but that lovely she's so lonely
She pumps him full of breakfast, and she sends him on his way
What a sing, song, dance
What
performance
What a cheap tent show
Oh, no, no, no, no, no
Then the boys light up )
Then the boys light up )
Then the boys light up ) x 2
Then the boys light up, light up, light up )
Break
Silently she opens the drawer
Mother's little helper is comin' out for more
Strategically positioned, before the midday show
That back is arched, those lips are parched, repeated blow by
blow
And later at the party, where all the MP's rave
'Bout the hummers she's been givin', and the money that they
saved
To her it is skin lotion, him promotion too
That flat in Surfers' Paradise, with the ocean view
Pre chorus
Then the boys light up x 8
Break x 2
