Well, there is something going down
Like the storm in the sky, ooh
I ain't gonna be played by your behavior
How can I [bad word] someone who's lying to me?

So bow out, go
Now I said bow out and leave
I said take your stuff and go
'Cause you're not for me, oh

Mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
Mamma knows best when I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on the ground, yeah

See no old bad doll
That you can pick up and drop
And all of your inconsistent love, yeah
That's about time that it S-T-O stops

So bow out, go
Now I said bow out and leave
I said take your stuff and go
'Cause you're not for me, no

Mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on some ground

"Just keep the best of my", daddy said to me
Always use humor as your therapy, no
Don't ever take life too seriously
Just do you 'cause you do you so perfectly

Say, mamma, mamma knows best
Say, daddy, daddy knows best

See, mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on the ground

Mamma, mamma knows best
Daddy, daddy knows best
See, mamma, mamma knows best

See, mamma knows best when times get hard
And papa always has a joke to make me laugh
See, mamma knows best when I feel down
To bring me up and always keep my feet on the ground
