Written by George Michael

Mama s gone and got herself a new man
It s a shame
He s the same
Mama please pleasestop pretending
This timeit won t end in tears
I find myselfwith a new daddy
My mama needs love you see
Guess she don t wanna be lonely

And nobody s keeping score
I don t say hi to those guys no more
Said mama can t you feel me
Holding my breath as they knockknockknock on our door

You re just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheels
The samethe same..

Johnny s gone and got himself a new man
He gets laidevery day
Johnny please pleasestop pretending
This timemay just end in tears
Take care of yourself
Because you won t find daddy
When you re popping those pills
Oh Johnnyis the danger just part of the thrill?

And nobody s keeping score
Johnny those guys that you shake it for
I said "Johnny can t you hear them
Saying mama knows best as they knockknock
knock on your door"

You re just taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheelsthe samethe same

Taking your ass to the top of that building
Throwing yourself under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheelswheelswheels

Pretty girllittle girlwhat were you thinking
Just 18 at the time
You were a mother and childat the same time
You were a mother and child
So young and fucked up baby
Always higher than a child should see.
Forgive me

To the top of that building
Under cars and trains
Taking the pill that you know will kill you
Under the wheelswheelswheels

Mama don t you let him stay

From bastard to loserhurt youused you in every way
Mamadon t you let him stayplease
Don t let him stay

I said JesusMaryand the Saints above
Won t you show him love?
