Mama's Broken Heart
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors
I screamed his name til the neighbors called the cops
I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
I don't know what I did next all I know, I couldn't stop
Word got around to the barflies and the baptists
My mama's phone started ringin off the hook
I can hear her now sayin she ain't gonna have it
Don't matter how you feel, it only matters how you look
Go and fix your make up, girl it's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin like a lady
Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
Wish I could be just a little less dramatic
Like a kennedy when camelot went down in flames
Leave it to me to be holdin the matches
When the fire trucks show up and there's nobody else to blame
Can't get revenge and keep a spotless reputation
Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make
My mama came from a softer generation
Where you get a grip and bite your lip and save a little face
Go and fix your make up, girl it's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin like a lady
cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
Powder your nose, paint your toes
Line your lips and keep em closed
Cross your legs, dot your i's
And never let em see you cry
Go and fix your make up, girl it's just a break up
Run and hide your crazy and start actin like a lady
Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
Even when you fall apart
But this ain't my mama's broken heart
