Mama
Cigarettes and coke Keeping me afloat
She don't want the memories And neither do I
I want you to forget me Promise you'll try
Mama, I think you're too drunk to drive
But some other time we should go for a ride
Why am I so heavy when I could be light?
I want you to forget me
Promise you'll try
Jamie calls me up
Says I'm the only boy they trust That's a lot of pressure
But Jamie I got your back
Besides, pressure makes a diamond My dad taught me that
Mama, I think you're too drunk to drive
But some other time we should go for a ride Why am I so heavy
(Why am I so shy?)
When I could be light? (Why am I so shy?)
I want you to forget me. (Why am I so shy?) Promise you'll try
My own flesh and bone Wants to eat me alive
Yeah, I know that you won't But I hope that you might
All the same All the same I'm ashamed Wide awake
Mama, I think we're too young to die
Slow dancing right on the edge of a knife And why am I so heavy
(Why am I so shy?)
When I could be light? (Why am I so shy?) Veronica or Betty?
(Why am I so shy?) I'm one lucky guy
She don't want the memories And neither do I
I want you to forget me Promise you'll try
Mama, I think you're too drunk to drive
But some other time we should go for a ride
Why am I so heavy when I could be light?
I want you to forget me
Promise you'll try
Jamie calls me up
Says I'm the only boy they trust That's a lot of pressure
But Jamie I got your back
Besides, pressure makes a diamond My dad taught me that
Mama, I think you're too drunk to drive
But some other time we should go for a ride Why am I so heavy
(Why am I so shy?)
When I could be light? (Why am I so shy?)
I want you to forget me. (Why am I so shy?) Promise you'll try
My own flesh and bone Wants to eat me alive
Yeah, I know that you won't But I hope that you might
All the same All the same I'm ashamed Wide awake
Mama, I think we're too young to die
Slow dancing right on the edge of a knife And why am I so heavy
(Why am I so shy?)
When I could be light? (Why am I so shy?) Veronica or Betty?
(Why am I so shy?) I'm one lucky guy
