Mother by Roger Waters

Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb?
Mother, do you think they'll like this song?
Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls?
Mother, should I build the wall?
Mother, should I run for President?
Mother, should I trust the government?
Mother, will they put me in the firing line?
Is it just a waste of time?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry
Momma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true
Momma's gonna put all of her fears into you
Momma's (1)__________ keep you right here under her wing
She won't let you fly, but she (2)__________ let you sing
Momma's gonna keep Baby (3)________ and warm
Ooo Babe
Ooo Babe
Ooo Babe, of course Momma's gonna (4)________ build the wall

Mother, do you (5)__________ she's good enough
For me?
Mother, do you (6)__________ she's dangerous
To me?
Momma, will she tear your little boy apart?
Mother, will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry
Momma's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you
Momma won't let anyone dirty get through
Momma's (7)__________ wait up until you get in
Momma will always find out (8)__________ you've been
Momma's gonna keep Baby healthy and clean
Ooo Babe
Ooo Babe
Ooo Babe, you'll (9)____________ be (10)________ to me

Mother, did it need to be so high?
