I'm Not Your Mother

People think youre tough
But you only pretend to be
A real man would live alone
And feel no pain, like me

When your baby said she was leaving
You slapped yourself in the face
You clung to her and cried
And cracked all over the place

Because youre a weakling
Youre a suckling lamb
Youre not so tough
Youre just a man

I was only talking when I said to you
Whatever it was I said
I didnt mean anything
Just put it out of your head

Now you look to me like Im ready to give
But I only just wanted to play
Youre trying to cop a feeling
While Im trying to get away

Youre a big guy but youre cut down to size
When youre left all by yourself
Well Im not paid to babysit
And dont ask me to help

Let go of me and fall
Into the arms of another
Im the wrong girl for you
Im not your mother

Im an island, Im a rock
My heads an empty mental block
You cant get lovin from a stone
I aint no goddamn foster home

Youre a weakling
Youre a suckling lamb
Youre not so tough
Youre just a man

Youre a weak thing
Just a little lamb
Youre not so tough
Youre just like a woman

Anything you can do I can do better
Girls will do it all without the aid of a mother
Anything you can do I can do better
Girls will do it all without the aid of a mother
Anything you can do I can do, do

Im not your mother
Im not your mother
