[IDLES - Mother lyrics]
My mother worked 15 hours 5 days a week
My mother worked 16 hours 6 days a week
My mother worked 17 hours 7 days a week
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
I know nothing i’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
My mother worked 15 hours 5 days a week
My mother worked 16 hours 6 days a week
My mother worked 17 hours 7 days a week
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
I know nothing i’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
Sexual violence doesn’t start and
End with rape it starts in our books and
Behind our school gates
Men are scared women will laugh in their face
Whereas women are scared it’s their
Lives men will take
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
My mother worked 16 hours 6 days a week
My mother worked 17 hours 7 days a week
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
I know nothing i’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
My mother worked 15 hours 5 days a week
My mother worked 16 hours 6 days a week
My mother worked 17 hours 7 days a week
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
The best way to scare a Tory
Is to read and get rich
I know nothing i’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours i know nothing
I’m just sitting here looking
At pretty colours
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
Sexual violence doesn’t start and
End with rape it starts in our books and
Behind our school gates
Men are scared women will laugh in their face
Whereas women are scared it’s their
Lives men will take
Mother fucker
Mother fucker
