Mama, I have some bad news for you

[chorus]
Don't tell me what you want,
don't tell me what I don't,
don't tell me what to do,
I knew, I knew (ooh-hoo).
It's something that I should,
but nothing that I could,
and never really like to do,
(ah-hoo-hoo),
So listen to me, Mama,
(I have some bad news),
(I have some bad news),
I have some bad news for you (ooh)!

[bridge]
I'm leaving home! I'm moving out!
I'm done with you! I feel no doubt!
There is a girl, that you don't know,
I need a room, I have to go.

[chorus]
Don't tell me what you want,
don't tell me what I don't,
don't tell me what to do,
I knew, I knew (ooh-hoo).
It's something that I should,
but nothing that I could,
and never really like to do,
(ah-hoo-hoo),
So listen to me, Mama,
(I have some bad news),
(I have some bad news),
I have some bad news for you (ooh)!

[instrumental]

[bridge]
Don't hold me back, don't try to cry!
I'm honest now, I tell no lie.
It's not a drug, no bad idea,
The reason is, I'm finished here! 

[chorus]
Don't tell me what you want,
don't tell me what I don't,
don't tell me what to do,
I knew, I knew (ooh-hoo).
It's something that I should,
but nothing that I could,
and never really like to do,
(ah-hoo-hoo),

[chorus]
Don't tell me what you want,
don't tell me what I don't,
don't tell me what to do,
I knew, I knew (ooh-hoo).
It's something that I should,
but nothing that I could,
and never really like to do,
(ah-hoo-hoo),
So listen to me, Mama,
(I have some bad news),
(I have some bad news),
I have some bad news for you (ooh)!
