The Rolling Stones - Mothers little helper



 What a drag it is getting old
"Kids 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 a 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 burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And two 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 tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimize 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
