Things Your Mother Would Want For You ... Lyrics

There are things your mother, like every mother, would want for you

A nice house, a sweet job, double figures, fulfillment, a degree or two

But just your happiness will do

But what do you do when you get all this and still something isn't right

Who turned off the light

You open up your phone up, download, load up

I'll tell you all that's on your mind

Where does happiness reside?

You're thinking she

She's what ma forgot

That happens a lot

Then you meet me

I am he

No this can't be your stop

Is he what ma forgot

The last of things your mother would want for you

Can a boy make mama happy too

So you ask your mother

Mother, are there rules, no in-between for the happiness you mean

She said, son you gotta find out

What's good for another, may not be it for you

Maybe it's kids with a lover or just you

So anyone could make me happy

Is that what you forgot to say

Any card could play

So you open up your phone up, download, load up

I'll tell you all that's on your mind

Where does that happiness reside

You're thinking she

She's what ma forgot

That happens a lot

Then you meet me

I am he

No this can't be your stop

Is he what ma forgot

The last of things your mother would want for you

Can a boy make mama happy too

To Adam, to Eve

To whom do you cleave

Do you wanna have an eggplant or burrito with peach

Mother tell him what was your plan?

Did you think that he'd be happy with a woman or man?

He likes my passion, my fashion

Sees my beauty and brains

And he cant lie, he's loving how I'm making those gains

What does his heart say

That question remains

She's a girl but I'm the guy

Eyes wide

You can't hide

Just sayin' I'm the reason why

You're thinking she

She's what ma forgot

That happens a lot

Then you meet me

I am he

No this can't be your stop

Is he what ma forgot

You're thinking she

She's what ma forgot

That happens a lot

Then you meet me

I am he

No this can't be your stop

Is he what ma forgot

The last of things your mother would want for you

Can a boy make mama happy too
