¡FELIZ DIA DE LA MADRE!

What a drag it is getting old




"Things are different today,"



I hear ev'ry mother say



Mother needs something today to calm her down



And though she's not really ill



There's a little yellow pill



She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper



And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day



"Things are different today,"



I hear ev'ry mother say



Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag



So she buys an instant cake and she buys a frozen steak



And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper



And to help her on her way, get her through her busy day



Doctor, please, some more of these



Outside the door, she took four more



What a drag it is getting old



"Men just aren't the same today,"



I hear ev'ry mother say



They just don't appreciate that you get tired



They're so hard to satisfy You can tranquilise your mind



So go running for the shelter of your mother's little helper



And four help you through the night, help to minimise your plight



Doctor, please, some more of these



Outside the door, she took four more



What a drag it is getting old



Life's just much too hard today,"



I hear ev'ry mother say



The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore



And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose



No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper



They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day.
