I gave you grief,
|
You gave me milk,
|
Your mother's breast my bed of silk.
|
An itch appears,
|
The time is here:
|
Mamma-Mia Mamma-Mia Mamma-Mia! Let me go!
|
|
You take the plunge and she knows,
|
You know, she knows the game,
|
She knows what you're thinking,
|
You're still her child and she knows,
|
She knows you know,
|
She knows what's best.
|
|
You love and you learn and you cry
|
When you're burned
|
And you love and you learn
|
And you laugh 'til it hurst
|
And you love and you learn
|
And you wait 'til your turn
|
And you twist or you stick or you burn.
|
|
"I give you trust you give me lies," she said
|
"At night I lie awake I try," she said
|
"To understand you."
|
"I never planned to disappoint you or annoy you,
|
To desert you or destroy you,
|
I wanna be there for you."
|
|
You take the plunge and she knows, you know,
|
She knows the game,
|
She knows what you're thinking,
|
You're still her child and she knows,
|
she knows you know,
|
She knows what's best.
|
|
You love and you learn
|
And you cry when you're burned
|
And you love and you learn
|
And you laugh 'til it hurts
|
And you love and yoou learn
|
And you wait 'til your turn
|
And you twist or you stick or you burn.
|
|
She needed a chill-out but no one would cool out our mamma,
|
A gun in her hand and the blood it spilled out in the sand...
|
Mother!
|
|
You love and you learn
|
And you cry when you're burned
|
And you love and you learn
|
And you laugh 'til it hurst
|
And you love and you learn
|
And you wait 'til your turn
|
And you twist or you stick or you burn.
