Your mom taught you so much.
She thought it would make you better
Maybe even save your life someday
Yes, most of it was genuine and honest
But others were a pure crock of ....
Her best included not eating before swimming
That last one is usually their favourite
How many people, though, did it work on
You never see anyone walking around with their tongues out
No one still has their fingers making antlers
And not a single person still has the nah nah nah face
So, it must be safe to make faces
Nothing will happen to you
Just another piece of mom’s ....
A piece you will use on your own kids
Maybe it will work for you
It sure didn’t work for her
