Metro station

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

So she won’t have to walk

It’s dark and cold and windy outside

That’s why we’re gonna give her a ride

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock

The sages say

Stop and smell the flowers

The bosses say

Work a few more hours

She slaves away

In front of her computer

Then heads on home

To play with someone cuter

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

So she won’t have to walk

It’s dark and cold and windy outside

That’s why we’re gonna give her a ride

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock

- instrumental - 

Got bills to pay

Inside her wheels are spinning

The kids are young

Their lives are just beginning

A scientist, a friend

A mother and a lover

She’s pulled in one direction, then another

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

So she won’t have to walk

It’s dark and cold and windy outside

That’s why we’re gonna give her a ride

Gonna pick up Mama at the Metro station

Tonight at 7 o’clock
