Get up now, get up now, get up out of bed
Wash your face, brush your teeth, come sleepy head
Where’s your clothes and your shoes?
Hear the words I said
Get up now! Get up now and make your bed

Are you hot? Are you cold? Are you wearing that?!
Where’s your books and your lunch and your homework at?
Wear your coat and your gloves and your scarf and your hat
Don’t forget – you gotta feed the cat

Eat your breakfast
The experts tell us it’s the most important meal of all
Take your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tall
Remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at 3 today
Don’t forget your piano lesson is this afternoon so you must play

Don’t shovel, chew slowly, but hurry! The bus is here!
Be careful, come back here! Did you wash behind your ears?

Play outside, don’t be rough, will you just play fair?
Be polite, make a friend, don’t forget to share
Work it out, wait your turn, never take a dare
GET ALONG! Don’t make me come down there!

Clean your room, fold your clothes, put your stuff away
Make your bed, do it now – do we have all day?
Were you born in a barn? Would you like some hay?
Can you even hear a word I say?

Answer the phone! Get off the phone
Don’t sit so close, turn it down, no texting at the table
No more computer time tonight
Your ipod is my ipod if you don’t listen up

Where are you going, and where, and whom, and
what time do you think you’re coming home?
Say thank you, please, excuse me,
makes you welcome everywhere you roam
You’ll appreciate my wisdom someday
when you’re older and you’re grown
Can’t wait till you have a couple little children of your own

You’ll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly
But right now I thank you not to roll your eyes at me

Close your mouth when you chew, if you appreciate
Take a bite, maybe two, of the stuff you hate
Use your fork, do not burp or I’ll set you straight
Eat your food – I put them on your plate

Get an A, get the door, don’t get smart with me
Get a grip, get in here – I’ll count to 3
Get a job, get a life, get a PHD
Get those

I don’t care who started it
You’re grounded until you’re 36
Get your story straight and tell the truth for once for heaven’s sake
And if all your friends jumped off a cliff, will you jump too?!

If I said it once I’ve said it at least a thousand times before
That you’re too old to act this way
It must be your father’s DNA

Look at me when I am talking
Stand up, straight when you walk to a place
For everything and everything must be in place
Stop crying or I’ll give you something real to cry about! Oh!

Brush your teeth, wash your face, put your pjs on
Get in bed, get in home, say a prayer with mom
Don’t forget – I love you *muacks*

And tomorrow we will do this all again
because us mums’ words will never end
You don’t need a reason why
Because, because, because, because

I said so, I said so, I said so, I said so,
I’m the Mom
the mom, the mom, the mom,
The Mom! Ta da!
