“Don’t Tell My Mother”
(John McMullen with minor additions by Wall & Knight)
Don’t tell my mother
She’ll think I’m crazy
Don’t tell my mother
She don’t need to be told.
Spare her the details
Of my adventures
Don’t tell my mother
She don’t see me that way.
‘Cause one fine day
We’re going to wake up
With the world at our door
Even now before the shake-up
We won’t go hungry no more.
Don’t tell my mother
About the dangers
She only listens
To the voices of angels.
‘Cause I’ve got you and that’s all that matters
Let the world find its own
Even now though we’ve been shattered
We will find a way home.
Don’t tell my mother…
