Mother's Little Helper

What a drag it is, getting old

"It's so different today", I hear every mother say

They just need something today, for confidence

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 the kids are all away, it's a blue and busy day

"Things are different today", I hear every mother say

Couldn't crash before her husband, such a drag

So she buys a (risen) cake and she burns a frozen steak

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

And the kids are all away, it's a blue and busy day

Oh doctor, please, I'm (on my knees), outside the door she took for more

What a drag it is, getting old

When you stop and save today, I hear every mother say

They just don't appreciate that you've retired

They're so hard to satisfy, lookin' tranquil at your mind

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

And forgets her through the night, helps to minimize her flight

Oh doctor, please, I'm (on my knees), outside the door she took for more

What a drag it is, getting old

When you stop and save today, I hear every mother say

That this mood of happiness is such a bore

If you take some more of those, you will get an overdose

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

And forget to run away

Hey!

Uh-oh! I fucked up there a little bit, please don't tell Mick!

Alright! Now it's time to play something a little different

It's a song of our first album (surprise 'em)

And it's gonna be rocking (surprise 'em)

Yeah, surprise, this is called "Surprise for you"

Surprise 'em, surprise 'em

Surprise, surprise (okay, tell 'em what it is)

(Wanna tell 'em what it is, or should I just start it?)

Start it, Frank! Hey, right on...

Yeah, ow, alright!
