"Kids are different today,"
I hear every mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter
Of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way
Gets her through her busy day
"Things are different today,"
I hear every mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husbband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake
And she burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter
Of a mother's little helper
And to help her on her way
Get her through her busy day
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took FOUR more
What a drag it is getting old
"Men just arent't the same today"
I hear every mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired
They're so hard to satisfy
You can tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter
Of a mother's little helper
And to help you through the night
Help to minimize your plight
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took FOUR 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 more of those
You will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter
Of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way
Through your busy dying day
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
