Lyrics
Some of us have to stay, daddy says not now
and mother says she s ready
And mother says she s ready, miss me when i m gone
Some just fade away, and don t stay out too long, make us all feel better
just like i am you won t need a reason
Some of us have to stay, mother says be careful Says, just do the best you can
Daddy says not now, make us all feel better
changin from day to day
and so to make the game easy
it s sad to say it s the ending
that s the breaks
and i m sorry
be just like i am
And you ll make out somehow, make us all feel better, some just fade away
changin from day to day
and don t stay out too long
Just like i am you won t need a reason, some of us may be showing, be just like i am
And don t stay out too long, it s sad to say it s the ending
Some of us have to stay, be just like i am
Mother makes the rules, make us all feel fine
We all know how the rules are, mother makes the rules Joe, she ll help us all to get steady
Changin from day to day, and if you have the time Joe, make us all feel better
and if you have the time
Some of us must be going, if you don t mind pretending
Some of us have to stay, make us all feel fine Mother, and if you have the time
all the feelin s gone
and mother says she s ready
some of us must be going
Mother makes the rules, some of us have to stay Walsh, make us all feel fine
Changin from day to day, some of us have to stay Joe, some of us must be going
Mother says be careful, just do the best you can
