Alejandro Escovedo - I Wish I Was Your Mother Lyrics

Send "I Wish I Was Your Mother" ringtone to your cell

I scream at you for sharing

I curse you just for caring

I hate the clothes you're wearing, they're so pretty

I tell you not to see me

I tell you not to feel me

I make your life a drag, it's such a pity

I watch your warm glow palin'

I watch your sparkle fadin'

As you realize you're failin' cos' you're so good

Oh, I don't mean to upset you

But there's so much crime to get through

If I could make it easier then I would

I wish I was your mother, I wish I'd been your father

And then I would have seen you, would have been you as a child

Played houses with your sisters and wrestled with all your brothers

And then who knows, I might have felt a family for a while

It's no use me pretending

You give and I do the spending

Is there a happy ending, I don't think so

Cos' even if we make it

I'll be too far out to take it

You'll have to try and shake it from my head

I wish I was your mother, I wish I'd been your father

And then I would have seen you, would have been you as a child

Played houses with your sisters and wrestled with all your brothers

And then who knows, I might have felt a family for a while
