What a drag it is getting old.. "Kids are different today". I hear ev'ry mother say. Mother needs something today to calm her down. And though she's not really ill. There's a little yellow pill. She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper. And it helps her on her way gets her through her busy day.. "Things are different today". I hear ev'ry mother say. Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag. So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak. And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper. And two help her on her way get her through her busy day.. Doctor please some more of these. Outside the door she took four more. What a drag it is getting old.. "Men just aren't the same today". I hear ev'ry mother say. They just don't appreciate that you get tired. They're so hard to satisfy. You can tranquilise your mind. So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper. And four help you through the night help to minimise your plight.. Doctorplese some more of these. Outside the door she took four more. What a drag it is getting old.. Life's just much too hard today". I hear ev'ry mother say. The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore. And if you take more of those you will get an overdose. No more running to the shelter of a mother's little helper. They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day..
