Mama's Boys lyrics

i’d like express my deepest gratitude for your charity and your patience during my blues. i must confess, i still cry every morning while every night i just take a bunch of these trying to forget you.

and don’t tell me how you’re the muse to every fit boy in soho. i don’t wanna hear about how they show you a real good time. i’d rather imagine... you on a stretcher on your way to the emergency room. while you imagine me somewhere high and laughing about you...

but it’s alright, yes it’s alright to cry about it. and it’s mighty nice, yeah it’s just fine if you feel you wanna die. there’s no room in heaven for california girls and mama’s boys. just like there ain’t no room in heaven for me and you.

I'd like to express my deepest gratitude for your charity
And your patience during my blues
I must confess I still cry every morning while every night
I just take a bunch of these trying to forget you

And don't tell me how you're the muse to every fit boy in Soho
I don't wanna hear about how they show you a real good time
I'd rather imagine... you on a stretcher on your way to the emergency room
While you imagine me somewhere high and laughing about you

But it's alright, yes it's alright to cry about it
And it's mighty nice, yeah it's just fine if you feel you wanna die
There's no room in heaven for california girls and mama's boys
Just like there ain't no room in heaven for me and you.

And don't tell me how you're the muse to every fit boy in Soho
I don't wanna hear about how they show you a real good time
I'd rather imagine... you on a stretcher on your way to the emergency room
While you imagine me somewhere high and laughing about you

There's no room in heaven for california girls and mama's boys
Just like there ain't no room in heaven for me and you.

So brilliant.

didn't realize that first verse once the music comes in was so well worded haha, i love it!

I didn't like this song in the beginning, but I gave it another chance today, and like it much more now.

Man I think Brian was really angry when he wrote this song, or did I misinterpreted the lyrics?

oh, no, you totally got it lol

he's really pissed and had no intention to disguise it, rather than to just express it plainly and as sarcastically as possible

that's my kinda man right there! haahhaha

The 1-2 punch of those lyrics is one of my favorite parts of Get Hurt.
So good.

I love reading the lyric posts. It really helps hear the song differently even though I've been singing along with it from the beginning.
