Crazy Old Mothers by Magnum (Band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You walk in the shadows, you gave in too soon
An endless procession that follows the moon
You wake up each morning, the same every day
Your life feels so empty, don’t throw it away
You may work, you may be rich
Like a king just passing by
All these things won’t make you better
And bad news still makes you cry

[Chorus]
Come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble
Come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble tonight
How does it feel? You remember
It’s in your flesh and blood
How does it feel? You remember
Just like you knew it would

[Verse 2]
It means nothing to you, you say it’s all right
But you realize when your knuckles turn white
There’s so many pathways, keep pulling you in
Don’t know where you’re going, don’t know where you’ve been
Write a note or make a call
And explain just how you feel
Put it all down in a letter
What you say, this is for real
[Chorus]
Come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble
Come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble tonight
How does it feel? You remember
It’s in your flesh and blood
How does it feel? You remember
Just like you knew it would

[Verse 3]
Yeah, sometimes it’s hard to resist
And maybe the way that you choose to go
Yeah, knowing the things you dismissed
And even the way that you say hello
How does it feel? You remember
It’s in your flesh and blood
How does it feel? You remember
Just like you knew it would

[Chorus]
Come on, come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble
Come on, come on, you crazy old mothers
Let’s get in trouble tonight
How does it feel? You remember
It’s in your flesh and blood
How does it feel? You remember
Just like you knew it would
