Listen to me, young man...
I AM YOUR LOVING MOTHER!
I brought you into this world...
And I can take you out like no other!

Look at me, boy...
When I’m talking to you!
If you don’t do as I say...
I slap your head with my shoe!

If you don’t clean up room...
I’ll put my fingernails in your arm...
If you don’t listen to me
I’ll do some real serious harm!

I’ll whip your backside
With my fat leather belt!
You won’t be able to sit for a week...
You’ll never forget how it felt!

I don’t want any of your backtalk...
Or I wash your mouth out with soap!
And don’t give me that lip, buster...
Or you will lose all your hope!

Listen to me, young man...
I AM YOUR LOVING MOTHER!
I brought you into this world...
And I can take you out like no other!
