Mother mother how's the family, I'm just calling to say hello

How's the weather how's my father am I lonely heavens no

Mother mother are you listening, just a phone call to ease your mind

Life is perfect never better, distance making the heart grow blind



When you sent me off to see the world, where you scared that I might get hurt

Would I try a little tobacco, would I keep on hiking up my skirt



I'm hungry

I'm dirty

I'm losing my mind

Everything's fine



I'm freezing

I'm starving

I'm bleeding to death

Everything's fine



Yeah, I'm working, making money I'm just starting to build a name

I can feel it around the corner, I could make it any day

Mother mother can you hear me, sure I'm sober sure I'm sane

Life is perfect never better, still your daughter still the same



If I tell you what you want to hear, will it help you to sleep well at night

Are you sure that I'm your perfect dear, now just cuddle up and sleep tight



I'm hungry

I'm dirty

I'm losing my mind

Everything's fine



I'm freezing

I'm starving

I'm bleeding to death

Everything's fine



I miss you

I love you
