The Coat Is Always On
Mother don't sit
Mother don't stand
Mother don't send me
Smoking grass go into the movie
The ambulance is after you too
Promise we're gonna go to New York City
Sorry about the fight in front of you
Angry women said 'motherfucker' on TV
That baby's gonna be so easy on me
Never see his smile
Never see his face
Smoking grass go into the movie
The ambulance is after you too
Promise we're gonna go to New York City
Sorry about the fight in front of you
Angry women said 'motherfucker' on TV
Mother don't send me
The coat is always on because it's always cold
We always lie when she wants to hear it
A lot of times we would just starve
They recognize the color of the smear
Maybe I'll listen when you can read my mind
I'm sorry, please don't be mad
Brother is old and grey
And he's only-
He's only 17
Father said he was gonna give me something
He gave me hate
Mother don't sit
Mother don't stand
Mother please don't send me
What happened to home-
What happened to home sweet-
What happened to home sweet home?
Mother don't stand
Mother don't send me
Smoking grass go into the movie
The ambulance is after you too
Promise we're gonna go to New York City
Sorry about the fight in front of you
Angry women said 'motherfucker' on TV
That baby's gonna be so easy on me
Never see his smile
Never see his face
Smoking grass go into the movie
The ambulance is after you too
Promise we're gonna go to New York City
Sorry about the fight in front of you
Angry women said 'motherfucker' on TV
Mother don't send me
The coat is always on because it's always cold
We always lie when she wants to hear it
A lot of times we would just starve
They recognize the color of the smear
Maybe I'll listen when you can read my mind
I'm sorry, please don't be mad
Brother is old and grey
And he's only-
He's only 17
Father said he was gonna give me something
He gave me hate
Mother don't sit
Mother don't stand
Mother please don't send me
What happened to home-
What happened to home sweet-
What happened to home sweet home?
