Washington - 1997 Lyrics

My Mother works so hard
She works so late
Oh Mother, take it easy
You work so hard
You might be late to your own party

When you leave me, it's not fair
It's not fair

Hit you with a feather
Miss you by a whisker
And I'm going to kill you
If you dare to hit me with a feather
Miss you by a whisker
Etcetera whatever

Oh my Father, Father I love you so
I love you so
I 've got parts of your body
I love you so
You're never late to your own party

When you leave me, it's not fair
When you leave me, it's not fair
When you leave me, it's not fair
When you leave me, it's not fair

Don't give me more than I want
Don't give me more than I want
Don't give me more than I want
I will just take what I've got
Don't give me what you want

Mother, I love you so, I love you so
I've got parts of your father, and Dorrigo
And now I know that if I had a brother
He would know, He would know
But all I've got's a sister
She lives below, she lives below
She lives below your home

How I love you

Hit you with a feather
Miss you by a whisker
And I'm going to kill you
If you dare to hit me with a feather
Miss you by a whisker
Better late than never
Your own party
(Repeat to End)
