I Wish I Was Your Mother

(ian hunter)



I scream at you for sharing

'n i curse you just for caring

I hate the clothes you're wearing, they're so pretty

'n i tell to not to see me

'n i tell you not to feel me

'n i make your life a drag, it's such a pity



'n i watch your warm glow palin'

'n i watch your sparkle fadin'

As you realise you're failin', cos you're so good

Now 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

'n 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

Cos 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



Oooooh i wish i was your mother

I wish i'd been your father

'n 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
