Well, the telephone is ringing   Is that my mother on the phone?   The telephone is ringing   Is that my mother on the phone?   The telephone is screaming   Won't she leave me alone   The telephone is ringing   Is that my mother on the phone?      Well, every girl I got out with   Becomes my mother in the end   Every girl I go out with   Becomes my mother in the end   Well, I hear my mother calling   But I don't need her as a friend   Every girl I go out with   Becomes my mother in the end      Oh Oh mother      Oh mother dear please listen   And don't devour me   Oh mother dear please listen   And don't devour me   Oh women please have mercy   Let this poor boy be   Oh mother dear please listen   And don't devour me
