Your Mother Should Know Lyrics
Let’s all get up and dance to a song that was a hit
Before your Mother was born
Though she was born a long long time ago
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
Sing it again.
Lift up your hearts and sing me a song that was a hit
Before your Mother was born
Though she was born a long long time ago
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
Sing it again.
Though she was born a long long time ago
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
Your Mother should know - your Mother should know
It's about how history repeats itself and we all "Get up and dance" to the same thing our parents and grandparents did. We do the same mistakes they did while ignoring their advice. "Your mother should know" because she's been there and she did the exact same thing at your age, and she ignored her mother's advice.
Funny how now this song seems to describe itself...
A very catchy little song. I like The Beatles' "vaudeville" type songs, ('Honey Pie' off The White Album, 'When I'm 64', this one) quite a bit.
I like this song because often when I'm with my friends I want to listen to older songs while they would prefer more modern music (which I enjoy as well) although I don't say "Let’s all get up and dance to a song that was a hit Before your Mother was born" most of the songs I want to listen to were a hit before their mothers were born.
Proof that McCartney was as hip as Lennon sometimes. Paul McCartney rips. Go and listen to Back to the egg, followed by Ram.
this song was a hit before my mother was born...
