Mother, mother, just look what they done, done to your son   Father, father, just look what they done, done to your son   Look here, mother, mother      I have felt the mark of ten thousand teeth   I done seen my body lying limply at my feet   As I've seen my soul creeping out my chest   Out of my head, towards the east, I've been victimized by the west      Mother, mother, just look what they done, done to your son   But it ain't so bad, I've been drinking while they're just having fun   Father, father, look what they done, done to your son   Hey, mother, mother      I've seen visions of dolphins dancing in my head   But I'm not gonna worry, might wake up in the morning, dead   But if I die, stoned before I wake   Lord, grant me one last wish, please unveil my fate      Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son   But it ain't so bad, I've been drinking while they're just having fun   Father, father, look what they done, done to your son   Look here, mother, mother      Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son   I didn't know what I was told   About the work of the devil and now I know   Father, father, look what they done, done to your son   I didn't know what I was told   About the work of the devil and now I know      Mother, mother, look what they done, done to your son   I didn't know what I was told   About the work of the devil and now I know   Father, father, look what they done, done to your son   I didn't know what I was told   About the work of the devil and now I know
