Mama

[Intro] Mama, we all go to Hell Mama, we all go to Hell I'm writing this letter and wishing you well Mama, we all go to Hell [Verse 1] Oh, well now Mama, we all gonna die Mama, we all gonna die, oh-oh Stop asking me questions, I'd hate to see you cry Mama, we all gonna die [Chorus] And when we go, don't blame us We'll let the fires just bathe us You made us oh so famous, we'd never let you go And when you go, don't return to me, my love (One, two, three, four!) [Verse 2] Mama, we're all full of lies Mama, we're meant for the flies And right now, they're building a coffin your size Mama, we're all full of lies [Verse 3] Well, Mother, what the war did to to my legs and to my tongue You should've raised a baby girl, I should've been a better son If you could coddle the infection, they can amputate at once (You should've been!) I could've been a better son [Chorus] When we go, don't blame us (Yeah!) We'll let the fires just bathe us You made us oh so famous We'll never let you go [Verse 4] She said, "You ain't no son of mine! For what you've done, they're gonna find (Gonna find!) A place for you, and just you mind your manners when you go And when you go, don't return to me, my love" (That's right) [Verse 5] Mama, we all go to Hell Mama, we all go to Hell It's really quite pleasant, except for the smell Mama, we all go to Hell (Two, three, four!) [Breakdown] Mama! Mama! Mama! Yeah! Mama! Mama! Mama! [Bridge] "If you would call me your sweetheart I'd maybe then sing you a song" But there's shit that I've done with this fuck of a gun You would cry out your eyes all along [Outro] We're damned after all Through fortune and flame, we fall And if you can stay, then I'll show you the way To return from the ashes you call We all carry on (We all carry on!) When our brothers in arms are gone (Our brothers in arms are gone!) So raise your glass high, for tomorrow, we die And return from the ashes you call
