The Rolling Stones - Mother`s Little Helper (Stereo Ver.)

What a drag it is, getting old

"It's so different today", I hear every mother say
They just need something today, for confidence
And though she's not really ill, there's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And the kids are all away, it's a blue and busy day

"Things are different today", I hear every mother say
Couldn't crash before her husband, such a drag
So she buys a [risen] cake and she burns a frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And two helper are all away, it's a blue and busy day

Oh doctor, please, I'm on my knees, outside the door she took for more
What a drag it is, getting old

When you stop and save today, I hear every mother say
They just don't appreciate that you've retired
They're so hard to satisfy, lookin' tranquil at your mind
And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And forgets her through the night, helps to minimize her flight

Oh doctor, please, I'm on my knees, outside the door she took for more
What a drag it is, getting old

"Life's just much too hard today,", I hear every mother say
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
And If you take some more of those, you will get an overdose
You'll go running for the shelter of your mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way
through your busy dying day
What a drag it is, getting old

"It's so different today", I hear every mother say
They just need something today, for confidence
And though she's not really ill, there's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And the kids are all away, it's a blue and busy day

"Things are different today", I hear every mother say
Couldn't crash before her husband, such a drag
So she buys a [risen] cake and she burns a frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And two helper are all away, it's a blue and busy day

Oh doctor, please, I'm on my knees, outside the door she took for more
What a drag it is, getting old

When you stop and save today, I hear every mother say
They just don't appreciate that you've retired
They're so hard to satisfy, lookin' tranquil at your mind
And goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And forgets her through the night, helps to minimize her flight

Oh doctor, please, I'm on my knees, outside the door she took for more
What a drag it is, getting old

"Life's just much too hard today,", I hear every mother say
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
And If you take some more of those, you will get an overdose
You'll go running for the shelter of your mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way
through your busy dying day
