Bbm
F
Um, I don't know how this came to me, but it did, and
Bbm
I know you moms are going to be so happy
with this song. I'm not sure if the daughters
are going be happy.
F
This song is called,
Sometimes
Mother
Really
Bbm
Does
Know
Best.
F
Daughter looked in mother's eyes and bleated,
please say yes.
Bbm
you never criticize my friends my hair or
Bb
Bbm
how I dress a tiny little eyebrow
Bb
Cm
F
pier cing on me would look sublime a
mother thought about this for quite a
long long time
Bb
hmm an eyebrow piercing that's a per
Cm
manent reminder of a temporary fad
F
When you're old and gray, my dear,
Cm
you'll think back and be glad
Bb
That your mother had the foresight
Cm
to turn down your request
F
Sometimes mother really
Cm
Bbm
does know best
Just a tiny tattoo,
F
mother , dancing on my skin
All the other kids have one,
Bbm
Bb
and I want to fit in
A delicate little butterfly mother
Cm
right here on my wrist
F
The mother thought about it
Then she said this
Hmm, a tattoo
Bb
That's a permanent reminder of
Cm
a tempor ary feeling
Think
F
Angelina and
Billy
Cm
Bb
Bob before you hit the ceil ing
Bbm
You think a tattoo on your teenage
Bb
Cm
skin will make you look unique
F
But when you're older,
Bbm
you look like a circus freak
F
Mother and the daughter barely
Bbm
spoke for the next year
C
F
Except for the occasional, hm m,
and snotty sneer
Whatever
It looked like there was nothing that
Bbm
could mend this sorry rift
C
Till the daughter overheard the mother
F
discuss getting a facelift.
Oh, a facelift, mother?
Bb
That's a permanent reminder
Cm
of a tem porary fear.
F
Only the lucky ones grow
Cm
Bb
older every year.
And I don't think you look like that
Cm
bad for a hag your age.
F
Cm
The mother sat there in a
Bbm
smol dering rage
Now,
there's two ways the song could go.
It could have a beautiful, uplifting,
wholesome ending
where everyone learns lessons of
self -acceptance
F
and go on to lead happy, lives.
Or it could go to the dark side.
I will decide based on your applause.
Who would like the
wholesome ending?
Who wants the dark side?
Cbm
You asked for it.
Mother said to daughter, okay,
Gb
let's make a deal.
Though your words stung
Cb
me at least now I know how you feel.
If you let me get my facelift,
Dbm
you can get that tattoo now
Gb
An d yes,
Cbm
I'll even let you pierce your brow
Both had their procedures done
Gb
on the same day
If only they had known the heavy
Cb
price they'd have to pay
The mother had her facelift done by
Dr.
Dbm
Frankenstein
Gb
She came out looking like a combination
Dbm
Bm
monkey and drag queen
And the daughter's tattoo went just fine,
F#
but not that eyebrow ring.
She contracted an infection,
B
too gross for me to see.
And both of them died disgusting,
C#m
awful, stinking deaths.
F#
Both had this to say,
with their dying breaths.
B
We're a perman ent reminder of
C#m
our tempor ary insanity.
F#
We sacrificed our looks, our lives,
C#m
B
for our foolish van ity.
And at the reading of their will,
Dbm
they left one last bequest.
A pillow upon which was embroidered,
Gb
Dbm
Sometimes a mother really
Gb
Cb
C
Cb
does know best.
Yeah, this has really been so much fun.
Thank you so much.
Dm
I am at the opera. I will win the opera.
Bb
My team loves the opera.
And I love theatre.
I follow the literature. I follow the history.
