[Verse 1: 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? Ooh-ah, Mother, should I build the wall? [Verse 2: Roger Waters] Mother, should I run for president? Mother, should I trust the government? Mother, will they put me in the firing line? Ooh-ah, is it just a waste of time? [Chorus: David Gilmour] Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry Mamma's gonna make all of your nightmares come true Mamma's gonna put all of her fears into you Mamma's gonna keep you right here, under her wing She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing Mamma's gonna keep baby cosy and warm [Post-Chorus: David Gilmour] Ooh babe, ooh babe, ooh babe Of course, Mamma's gonna help build the wall [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3: Roger Waters] 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? Ooh-ah, Mother, will she break my heart? [Chorus: David Gilmour] Hush now, baby, baby, don't you cry Mamma's gonna check out all your girlfriends for you Mamma won't let anyone dirty get through Mamma's gonna wait up until you get in Mamma will always find out where you've been Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean [Post-Chorus: David Gilmour] Ooh babe, ooh babe, ooh babe You'll always be “baby” to me [Outro: Roger Waters] Mother, did it need to be so high?
