Mother -- Pink Floyd


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 mine?   Is it just a waste of time?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.  Mama's gonna make all
your nightmares come true. Mama's gonna put all her fears
into you.  Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing. Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm. Of course mama's gonna help
build the wall.

Mother do you think she's good enough, for me?
Mother do you think she's dangerous, to me?
Mother will she tear your little boy apart 
Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry. Mama's gonna check out
all your girlfriends for you. Mama won't let anyone dirty get through. Mama's gonna wait up until you get in.
Mama will always find out where you've been. Mama's gonna
keep baby healthy and clean. You'll always be baby to me.
Mother, did it need to be so high?


The movie The Wall is a semi-autobiographical story about a young boy that loses his father in the war and is raised by his overly protective mother. The child grows up alone as an outsider that absolutely does not fit in. He feels trapped by his overly protective environment while being shunned by the men around  him                                                                  

Roger Waters: "If you can level one accusation at mothers, it is that they tend to protect their children too much. Too much and for too long. This isn't a portrait of my mother, although one or two of the things in there apply to her as well as to I'm sure lots of other people's mothers."
