Partying one night got way out of hand
Drifting home that morning, hoping Mom would understand
I fell through the door with the slightest of care
When my eyes began to focus, Mom was standing right there

Where've you been young man, don't you know it's pretty late?
Mom, it's six in the morning so I made a mistake
The car has a flat, no Gary lost my keys
I tried to call early but

Breakfast first, please, I just got out of bed
It's hard to get started with you drilling in my head
I saw her smile then she drug me off my knees
I'll beg her for forgiveness but breakfast first, please

Questions, oh, the questions, how they ring so loud
Mom keeps preaching how I'm with the wrong crowd
She states her mind, she states it pretty well
For the next 3 weeks I'll be walking through hell

She's got a list of chores and the list is so long
I can see no friends and there's no telephone
She needs to chill out, it's not as bad as it seems
One more cry and I'll

Breakfast first, please, I just got out of bed
It's hard to get started with you drilling in my head
I saw her smile then she drug me off my knees
I'll beg her for forgiveness but breakfast first, please

The dog won't leave me alone
Get away, get away, get away
Now I'm all stuck at home
She didn't see it my way

The dog won't leave me alone
Get away, get away, get away
