Verbatim
Mother Mother Lyrics

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah
Repetitive sounds used for the chorus

I wear women's underwear
I engage in cross-dressing and do things associated with feminine things

And then I go to strike a pose in my full length mirror
I strike a pose in my full-length mirror after wearing women's underwear

I cross my legs just like a queer
I sit with my legs crossed which is often associated with homosexual men

But my libido is strong when a lady is near, yeah
My sexual desire is aroused when I'm around a woman

What defines a straight man's straight?
What characteristics define a heterosexual man as straight

Is it the boxer in the briefs or a twelve ounce steak? Nah
Wearing boxers or briefs or eating a large steak does not determine a man's sexual orientation

I tell you what a women loves most
I am going to tell you what women love the most

It's a man who can slap but can also stroke
Women love a man who can be both rough and gentle

Goin' in the wind is an eddy of the truth and it's naked
In the wind is a raw, unfiltered version of the truth

It's verbatim and it's shakin'
The truth is exact and is causing unease

No, no, no, no, no, no
Repetitive sounds used in the chorus

No, no, no more gettin' elated
No more getting excited or aroused

No more listless invitations
No more meaningless or apathetic invitations

I live by a hospital
I reside next to a medical facility

And every day, I go out walking past its sickly windows
Every day, I walk past windows of the hospital that are associated with sickness and disease

I see people dying there
I witness individuals succumbing to death within the hospital

But my tender age makes it hard to care
My young age makes it difficult for me to show empathy or concern

The incinerator and a big smoke stack
The hospital has an incinerator and chimney which I find amusing due to their phallic shapes

It's a phallic symbol and it makes me laugh
The incinerator and smokestack are symbolic of male genitalia and I find them humorous

All I need is a heart attack
I only require a heart attack, an ironic statement as heart attacks are typically life-threatening

Come on, humble my bones with a cardiac
I invite a heart attack to humble or bring me down

For the love of fuck
An exclamation used to express strong emotion or annoyance

For the sake of Pete
An expression meaning 'for God's sake'

Oh, did you ever really think you'd love a guy like me?
A rhetorical question expressing disbelief that someone could love someone like the singer

I am the rooster in the morning
I am the dominant and confident one in the morning

I'm the cock of the day
An expression meaning 'I am the best'

I'm the boxer in the briefs
I am masculine and wear underwear that is often associated with men

I'm a twelve ounce steak
I am a large, hearty meal often associated with masculinity

Ayy-oh
Repetitive sounds used for the chorus

Hey-oh
Repetitive sounds used for the chorus

Yeah-bo
Repetitive sounds used for the chorus

It's verbatim
The truth is exact and accurate

And yeah, and it's naked
The truth is exposed and vulnerable

And yeah, and it's shakin'
The truth is causing unease and insecurity

It shakes, shakes, shakes
Repetitive sounds used for emphasis
