Ask any of the chickies in my pen
They'll tell I'm the biggest mother hen
I love 'em all and all of them love me
Because the system works
The system called reciprocity...
Got a little motto
Always sees me through
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you!
There's a lot of favors
I'm prepared to do
You do one for Mama
She'll do one for you
They say that life is tit for tat
And that's the way I live
So, I deserve a lot of tat
For what I've got to give
Don't you know that this hand
Washes that one too
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you!
If you want my gravy
Pepper my ragout
She'll get hot for you
When they pass that basket
Folks contribute to
You put in for Mama
She'll pull out for you
Are the ones the world adores
So boost me up my ladder, kid
And I'll boost you up yours
Let's all stroke together
Like the Princeton crew
When you're strokin' Mama
Mama's strokin' you
So what's the one conclusion
I can bring this number to?
When you're good to Mama
Mama's good to you

Mr.Billy Flynn in the "Press Conference Rag"
Notice how his mouth never moves——almost.
Where'd you come from?
Mississippi.
And your parents?
Very weal...
Now deep down inside
You know, it cuts like a knife
But I'm too proud to show it
Pain in my chest it feels
Like I lost my breath
But she just doesnt k...
Don't you talk
You know I've heard it
All before
That I'm deserving of
Something more
You think I'm worth it
But you're not the one willing to give it...
es schüttet wie aus eimern
klar bin ich dabei, mann
da gibt es nichts zu überlegen
gibt nichts besseres als 'n kick im regen
das t-shirt klebt am körp...
