letra de 50 ways to fool your mother - bill harley

[verse 1]
early in the morning when you open up your eyes
you can smell the coffee perking and the egg your mother fries
lyin’ in your bed you start to feel blue
when you think of all the things that you really wanna do
you wanna play baseball, you wanna ride your bike
you wanna read a comic book, you wanna take a hike
but no you don’t, there’s something else to do
dress yourself and have your breakfast, you’ve got to go to school
if just this once you didn’t have to go, but if you ask they’ll just say no
if you only think a moment, there’s something you can do

[refrain]
there must be fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother

[verse 2]
its really rather simple if you only stop and think
you could tell her you got sick last night and threw up in the sink
say you got the measles, say you got the mumps
tell her that you’re too depressed and way down in the dumps
tell her you’re not you, there’s a martian in your place
you’re really on a rocket ship somewhere in outer sp-ce
oh you’ve got to use your head, but i’m sure you’ll find a way

[refrain]
there must be fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother
[verse 3]
you could tell her that your teacher said you’ve done so well
you don’t have to go to school today, you can rest a spell
tell her that a tidal wave is comin’ to your town
if you try to get to school you just might drown
say a herd of elephants is roamin’ through the streets
that your shoes have shrunk, they won’t fit on your feet
say your school was zapped into hypersp-ce

[refrain]
there must be fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother

[verse 4]
you could tell her that your turtle’s sick, you’ve got to stay at home
you’re waiting for the president to call you on the phone
say you’re sore and achy, there’s a poundin’ in your head
that your legs won’t move, you can’t get out of bed
tell her that you won’t get up, you know it’s just a dream
you know your real mother would never act so mean
put some powder on your fact until it’s really white
heat up the thermometer over the light
take some iodine and put some spots upon your face

[refrain]
there must be fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother
[verse 5]
so your mother finally buys it, she says “o.k
but if you’re so sick, you can’t go out to play
you’ve got to stay at home, you’ve got to get some rest
i can help you with your homework you can study for your test
maybe by tomorrow you’ll feel o.k
i’m really very sorry that you’re sick on sat-rday”

[spoken]
sat-rday? i thought it was friday

[verse 6]
your mother smiles sweetly as she gets up to leave
you should have known that mothers got something up their sleeves
there must be some way out of this, something you can do

[refrain]
are there fifty more ways to fool your mother?
fifty more ways to fool your mother?
fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother
fifty ways to fool your mother
