Something is terribly wrong,
I've got my body tied up, between my tongue,
And at this point we've all grown speechless.
(Speechless)

Something is pulling at these strings,
Tied tightly tearing at the seems.
This isn't happening,
Is this really happening?

Mother oh my,
What a mess you've become.
You're not fooling anyone. 2x
You're turning your back on,
The family you love.
You're not fooling anyone. 2x

You got this all wrong,
You're not the same person you were when I was young.
And at this point, I feel so useless.
(Useless)

We can torch this house,
Or change our names,
Oe burn these pictures in their frames.
But the memories won't change,
They will never change.

Mother oh my,
What a mess you've become.
You're not fooling anyone. 2x
You're turning your back on,
The family you love.
You're not fooling anyone. 2x
(Anyone)

So close, to repeating,
Everything that I have been feeling,
It's not enough, to let this go.
So close, to repeating,
Everything that I have been feeling,
It's not enough, not enough to let this go.

(Mother Oh My What A Mess You've Become)
You're not fooling anyone. 2x
You're turning your back on the family you love.
You're not fooling anyone. 2x
