Mother Knows Best - From "Tangled"
You want to go outside?
Why, Rapunzel
Look at you, as fragile as a flower
Still a little sappling
Just a sprout
You know why we stay up in this tower
I know, but-
That's right, to keep you safe and sound, dear
Guess I always knew this day was coming
Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest
Soon, but not yet
But-
Shh, trust me pet
Mother knows best
Mother knows best
Listen to your mother
It's a scary world out there
Mother knows best
One way or another
Something will go wrong, I swear!
Ruffians! Thugs!
Poison ivy! Quicksand!
Cannibals and snakes!
The Plague!
(No!) Yes! (But-)
Also, large bugs!
Men with pointy teeth, and...
Stop!
No more, you'll just upset me
Mother's right here
Mother will protect you
Darling, here's what I suggest
Skip the drama
Stay with Mama
Mother knows best
Go ahead, get trampled by a rhino
Go ahead, get mugged and left for dead
Me, I'm just your mother and what do I know?
I only bathed, and changed, and nursed you
Go ahead and leave me
I deserve it
Let me die alone here
Be my guest!
When it's too late, you'll see
Just wait
Mother knows best
Mother knows best
Take it from your mumzie
On your own, you won't survive
Sloppy! Underdressed!
Immature! Clumsy!
Please, they'll eat you up alive!
Gullible! Naive!
Positively grubby! Ditzy!
And a bit, well, hmm, vague!
Plus, I believe, getting kinda chubby
I'm just saying 'cause I love you
Mother understands
Mother's here to help you
All I have is one request...
Rapunzel?
Yes?
Don't ever ask to leave this tower, again
Yes Mother.
I love you very much dear
I love you more
I love you most
Don't forget it
You'll regret it
Mother knows best
Why, Rapunzel
Look at you, as fragile as a flower
Still a little sappling
Just a sprout
You know why we stay up in this tower
I know, but-
That's right, to keep you safe and sound, dear
Guess I always knew this day was coming
Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest
Soon, but not yet
But-
Shh, trust me pet
Mother knows best
Mother knows best
Listen to your mother
