Mama Never Said

Mama taught me things every girl gets taught 'Bout actin' like a lady and the things you ought To know from day to day, what to do, and what to say Ordinary basic rules Like keep your legs together when you're wearin' a skirt And never let a boy look down your shirt And never talk dirty and never, ever flirt Well, where did she go to school? Saint Innocent? Mama never said a word about that How kissin' and a-huggin' makes your heart beat fast 'Bout lookin' at the stars, lyin' on your back Not one word about that No, mama never told me nothin' 'bout how Love can make you crazy, make you go "wow" Hormones ragin', get you all out of whack She never said a work about that No, mama never said a word about that Mama told me what to do and what not Said a lot of things that didn't mean squat When I saw you, it all went to pot The rules went out the door Mama never said how you just can't sleep Can't stay off the phone, no desire to eat Everything she said don't apply to me I guess that what's mamas are for Mama never said a word about that All the little things I never thought to ask Things I didn't know, and neither did she evidently About passion and desire and all of the rest Feelin's that you're gettin' from the opposite sex I guess my sweet mama did her motherly best But she never said a word about that No, she never a word about that Weak in the knees I can't think straight The birds and the bees Will just have to wait We'll just learn it as we go What else do we need to know? Uh-oh, ooh, whoa Mama never said a word about that How kissin' and a-huggin' makes your heart beat fast Lookin' at the stars, lyin' on your back Not one word about that Oh, mama never told me nothin' 'bout how Fallin' in love can make your heart go "wow" Hormones ragin' get you all out of whack She never said a word about that No, we never, never, never talked about that No, mama never said a word about that Mama Mama Never said a word Mama never said a word Mama never said a word about that Mama Mama Never said a word Mama never said a word Mama never said a word about that Aw, you know, I never would listen anyway Nice talk
