ian hunter - i wish i was your mother (live) lyrics
hunter
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.
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
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.
