Mamma's Place Lyrics - Singles - Roisin Murphy

So you think you know it all 

But that's just the arrogance of youth 

I've been there and I've done it, baby 

I'm tellin' you the truth 

Your Momma was a tear away 

I used to think I knew it all 

Thought I could play the game and not get played, no 

But then the fall. 

Don't you go pull a fast one 

I used to be an awful rascal 

Do you think you invented being bad? 

I used to be a real rough-hewn 

But had to become a tough one 

Do you think you invented being bad? 

(repeat)

I bet you think I look respectable 

You should've seen me in my prime 

You'd have thought that I was headed for, oh yeah 

I life of crime. 

I bet you think that you're the clever one, clever one 

The one that got away. 

Well, I've seen them come and seen them go, oh yeah 

But I have it made. 

I'm as sweet as I can be 

I've earned respectability. 

Do you know I have a history? 

You won't get to pull the wool over my eyes 

Fool, if you think you'll make a fool of me 

Nothing you do remotely new. 

It all been done, when I was young 

In younger days I went astray 

You mighta say, it's all a haze 

Photos 

It's all been done, your brand new craze 

It all begun at Momma's place 

Don't you go pull a fast one 

I used to be an awful rascal 

Do you think you invented being bad? 

I used to be a real rough-hewn 

But had to become a tough one 

Do you think you invented being bad? 

(repeat)
