Mother Love

Chorus: Mummy and daddy owned me till I could understand

At the end of my arm was my own fucking hand

In my head I had a brain that they filled up with lies

I didn't fucking need them with their love and family ties


Little children shouldn't speak until they're spoken to

Just another showpiece to show the neighbours who

Can produce the perfect babe with everything in place

God help you if you come out without an angel face

If you haven't got the looks that prove how nice you are

You'll have failed your duty and that's all you fucking are

You're just a status symbol that they need to have in life

Just the proof they need to be the perfect man and wife


Chorus


Like a fucking dustbin they fill you up with trash

Tell you all that life is, is working for some cash

Life's a competition and you've got to be the best

Tread on everybody else, forget about the rest


They tell you to be grateful for what they've done to you

Like tell you the conditions and pump it into you

That you really mustn't fail them cos you owe them a debt

Cos they're the ones that made you and they won't let you forget


Chorus


You're not a human in their eyes, you're a novelty

Don't want you thinking, you'll break the fantasy

Fantasy that you're a toy providing endless fun

You're not a human being, you're their daughter or their son

You bring them lots of happiness when you're very small

But when you lose those darling looks no-one cares to call

Cos you're no more the cuddly toy for them to hug and hold

You're not an individual and they're just getting old


Chorus


Didn't fucking need them with their love and family ties (repeat)

Didn't fucking need them with their love and bloody lies
