Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Drinking again.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Go tell a friend.
Now I can see every one of your flaws,
All of the things I could not see before.
You come in stinking and slurring your words,
You don't stop talking and ironing shirts.
Where did you put your bottle this time?
Better be somewhere I won't find
'Cause you know it's going down the sink,
Even your sister says you shouldn't drink.
Used to depend on the person I see
Well look at you now, you can't even speak.
And then you tell me to go fix my life
Well what about yours, you can't even write?
And you bitch about how you don't get work done,
It's not my fault, it's because you're drunk,
And you're whining to me about how hard it is
Being a single mother and raising two kids.
Well shut the fuck up, I don't care anymore,
And I can't turn back to when it was before
And I know you've had your fair share of abuse
But that's in the past so you've got no excuse.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Drinking again.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Go tell a friend.
Acting like a person I hate,
"Just go to bed now" is all I say.
Don't talk to me when you are this way.
It just makes me sick and I'll lose it one day
And I'll do something that I swear that I will regret,
So stop it okay, and never forget,
The way that it was when we were all fine,
Just sort out your head, and I'll fix mine.
It's nobody's fault, so don't try and blame
Anyone else for all your pain.
No-one can help you except for yourself,
So put down the glass and get some fucking help.
Or a boyfriend, I don't know, whatever you need,
How 'bout a better son or some friends maybe?
Once again I'm sorry for my part in this,
At least you learnt a lesson though: children are shit.
They take your money, they kill you dreams,
They cry when you don't buy them ice creams.
They age you and they make you shout
But sober thoughts will help you out.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Drinking again.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Go tell a friend.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Drinking again.
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Mummy's been drinking,
Go tell a friend.
