Psychologists debate heatedly:
Are you the product of environment or heredity?
But either case convicts your mom, on that much they agree!
Smart women blame their mothers.
Smart women blame their
mothers.
It's the daughterly thing to do.
You say you're not happy? You're feeling stress?
Don't forget who handed down her PMS.
Is your car a wreck?
Is your job a drag?
Did your bank foreclose? Has your perm gone bad?
Do all the men you date resemble dear old Dad?
Smart women blame their mothers.
Now the world's got troubles and it wouldn't be fair
To blame them all on Mom.
Well, a few like drugs, and how
'bout acid rain?
A mom gave birth to Saddam Hussein.
Smart women blame their
mothers.
She'll be getting what she has due.
Next time you have the old dear into your home
Send her to her room with no TV or phone.
As you trudge through
life on your size ten feet
Are your hips too wide? Is your tooth too sweet?
Is your life philosophy: "I'm full. Let's eat."?
Smart women blame their mothers.
It's the logical, obvious, natural, daughterly thing to do.
But of course it comes easier if
you were born a Catholic or Jew.
Don't be guilty because when your
own kids grow up, they'll all blame you.
That's why
Smart women blame their
Disappoint and shame their
Smart women blame their mothers.
