[00:00.13]后妈茶话会 (Live) - 土土不土啊
[00:05.22]Ever since I was a girl my own mother vowed
[00:07.64]I must find the way to power through a noble brow
[00:10.44]I married once for love then my sences came
[00:13.36]I must marry for the stature of my husband's name
[00:16.16]Onto marriage number two
[00:17.6]I knew what I had to do
[00:19.26]And my poor husband fell ill in a year or two
[00:21.82]Solved problem number one now to problem number two
[00:24.48]His doe eyed little girl with gentle point of view
[00:27.36]Would I ship her off to school
[00:28.77]No I told her if she stayed that she'd have
[00:30.79]To earn her keep and so she became the maid
[00:33.31]She was lazy
[00:33.85]She was crazy
[00:34.46]She was talking to the mice
[00:35.8]She was hopelessly naive so she had to pay the price
[00:38.78]I moved her to the attic out of sight
[00:40.58]And out of mind
[00:41.55]I could have thrown her out but I'm benevolent and kind
[00:44.62]Mother your heart's too big for you
[00:50.52]I knew what I had to do
[00:54.8]After all difficult children will take advantage of your good nature
[00:59.54]So you lock them up throw away the key
[01:03.02]There's one on every family tree
[01:05.96]Ungrateful
[01:06.65]Hateful
[01:07.18]Vile too the things she put you through
[01:11.71]Break their spirit so they obey
[01:14.33]Now they'll do anything you say
[01:17.16]Maybe you'd call it cruel but others
[01:20.63]Would call it love
[01:22.26]Tough love
[01:23.72]I ask you is it a crime to strive
[01:26.05]For perfection in all things
[01:27.6]Oh no they're so cute when they're little but
[01:30.17]Then they grow up and just ruin everything
[01:34.16]I never wanted children life was better on my own
[01:36.69]All the screaming nagging chilled me to the bone
[01:39.53]But then one day I came across
[01:41.34]A flower growing free
[01:42.42]It's magic kept me young so I kept it all for me
[01:45.259995]But someone dug it up now a baby
[01:46.93]Held the power
[01:47.740005]So I borrowed her locked her up
[01:49.39]And hid her in a tower
[01:50.9]Years went by oh the sacrifice
[01:53.509995]And against my better judgment
[01:54.94]I fed her once or twice
[01:56.75]Teenagers now I know I wild eat their young
[01:59.19]But that's messy
[02:00.17]Manipulation's easily more fun
[02:02.18]A little guilt a lot of force of
[02:03.74]Course you have to lie
[02:04.95]Remind them that without you they'd shrivel up and die
[02:07.97]They only have themselves to blame
[02:13.61]If you'd been there you'd do the same
