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?
Ooh ah,  Mother, should I build the  wall?
Mother,  should I run for president?
Mother,  should I trust the government?
Mama,  will they put me in the firing line?
Ooh ah,  Is it just a waste of time
Hush  now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Mamma's  gonna make all of your nightmares  come true,
Mamma's  gonna put all of her fears  into you,
Mamma's  gonna keep you right here, under  her wing.
She  won't let you fly, but she might  let you sing,
Mamma's  gonna keep baby cosy  and warm.
Oooh babe,
Oooh babe,
 Ooh baby, Of  course Mamma's gonna help build the wall.
Mama,  do you think she's good enough,  for me?
Mama,  do you think she's dangerous, to me?
Mama,  will she tear your little boy apart?
Ooh ah,  Mother, will she break my heart?
Hush  now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Mamma's  going to check out all your girlfriends  for you,
Mamma  won't let anyone dirty  get through,
Mamma's  gonna wait up until  you get in.
Mamma  will always find  out where you've been,
Mamma's  gonna keep baby healthy  and clean.
Oooh babe,
Oooh babe,
 Ooh babe,  You'll always be baby to me.
Mother,  did it need to be so high?
