paroles de chanson I Wish I Was Your Mother - Mott the Hoople

I scream at you for sharing
And I curse you just for caring
I hate the clothes you′re wearing, they're so pretty
And I tell you not to see me
And I tell you not to feel me
And I make your life a drag, it′s such a pity

And I watch your warm glow palin'
And I watch your sparkle fadin'
As you realise you′re failin′, 'cause you′re so good
No, I don't mean to upset you
But there′s so much crime to get through
If only I could make it easier then I would

Oh, I wish I was your mother
I wish I'd been your father
And then I would have seen you
Would have been you as a child
Played houses with your sisters
And wrestled with all your brothers
And then who knows
I might have felt a family for a while

It′s no use me pretendin'
You give and I do the spendin'
Is there a happy ending? I don′t think so
′Cause even if we make it
I'll be too far out to take it
You′ll have to try and shake it from my head

Oh, I wish I was your mother
I wish I'd been your father
And then I would have seen you
Would have been you as a child
Played houses with your sisters
And wrestled with all your brothers
And then who knows
I might have felt a family for a while
