"Mama's Got A Lover"


	Mama's got a lover
	a painter I am told
	she's getting out of real estate
	for the art scene down in old Soho
	Art scene down in old Soho

	Mama's got a lover
	he owns a gallery
	she says he likes collages but
	the money's in graffiti
	Money's in graffiti

	Mama's got a lover
	I met him yesterday
	she says she hopes I like him
	maybe I'll send him a card on father's day
	Father's day

	Mama's got a lover
	they're backing a film
	it's about a working mother
	who gives birth to black and white Siamese twins
	Black and white Siamese twins

	Mama's got a lover
	he's got something to say
	he says he's into dirt and rot
	The essence of "urban decay"
	"Urban decay"

	Mama's got a lover
	we met yesterday
	she says she hopes I like him
	I'll send him a card on father's day
	On father's day

	Mama's got a lover
	I met him yesterday
	she's starting a new chapter
	I wish she was on the last page
	The last page

	Mama's got a lover
	we met yesterday
	she says she hopes I like him
	I'll send him a card on father's day
	Father's day

	Mama's got a lover (Mama's got a lover)
	mama's got a lover (Mama's got a lover), oh
	Mama's got a lover (Mama's got a lover)
	my mama's got a lover (Mama's got a lover)
	(Mama's got a lover)

"Mama's Got A Lover"

Mama's Got a Lover
A painter I am told
She's getting out of real estate
For the art scene down in old Soho

Mama's Got a Lover
He owns a gallery
She says he likes collages but
The money's in graffiti

Mama's Got a Lover
I met him yesterday
She says she hopes I like him
maybe I'll send him a card on Father's Day

Mama's Got a Lover
They're backing a film
It's about a working mother
Who gives birth to black and white
Siamese twins

Mam's Got a Lover
he's got something to say
He says he's into dirt and rot
The essence of "urban decay"

Mama's Got a Lover
We met yesterday
She says she hopes I like him
I'll send him a card on Father's Day

Mama's Got a Lover
I met him yesterday
She's starting a new chapter
I wish she was on the last page
