"Kids are different today," I hear every mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down And though she´s not really ill There´s a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother´s little helper And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
"Things are different today," I hear every mother say Cooking fresh food for a husband´s just a drag So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak And goes running for the shelter of a mother´s little helper And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day
Doctor, please, some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old
"Men just aren´t the same today," I hear every mother say They just don´t appreciate that you get tired They´re so hard to satisfy, you can tranquilize your mind So go running for the shelter of a mother´s little helper And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight
Doctor, please, some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old
"Life´s just much too hard today," I hear every mother say The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose No more running for the shelter of a mother´s little helper They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day
