What a drag it is getting old

Kids are different today

I hear ev mother say

Mother needs something today to calm her down

And though she not really ill

There a little yellow pill

She goes running for the shelter of a mother little helper

And it helps her on her way

Gets her through her busy day

different today

I hear ev mother say

Cooking fresh food for a husband just a drag

So she buys an instant cake

And she burns her frozen steak

And goes running for the shelter of a mother little helper

And two helps 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 the same today

I hear ev mother say

They just don appreciate that you get tired

They so hard to satisfy

You can tranquilize your mind

So go running for the shelter of a mother 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 just much too hard today

I hear ev mother say

The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore

And if you take more of those

You will get an overdose

No more running to the shelter of a mother little helper

They just helped you on your way

Through your busy dying day
