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