[Intro]
What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 1]
"Kids are different today," I hear every mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill, there's a little yellow pill
[Refrain]
(один удар) (один удар)
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
[Verse 2]
"Things are different today," I hear every mother say
Cooking fresh food for her husband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she burns a frozen steak
[Refrain]
(один удар) (один удар)
She goes running for the shelter of her mother's little helper
And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day
[Bridge]
Doctor, please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 3]
"Men just aren't the same today," I hear every mother say
"They just don't appreciate that you get tired"
"They're so hard to satisfy," you can tranquilize your mind
[Refrain]
(один удар) (один удар)
So go running for the shelter of your mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight
[Bridge]
Doctor, please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
[Verse 4]
"Life's just much too hard today," I hear every mother say
The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
[Refrain]
(один удар) (один удар)
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day
Hey
