Mother
You protect me
You always told me
I would grow
I was broken-hearted
I was always left alone

And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man
And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man

They'd call me
The odd man out and
The little doormat
The ugly ducky
Always left behind
And always trying to make them laugh

And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man
And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man

Oh I know you've been there too
Yes I know you've been there too
Oh I know you've been there too
Yes I know...

And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man
And I'd make out
With the back of my hand
I'd pretend it's a man
I'd pretend it's a man

We all make out with the back of our hands
We pretend it's a man
We pretend it's a man...
