Well, I don't want to hang around with you
I've got my motor, baby, and I'm gonna see you through
You think I want to be alone with you
It doesn't matter, baby, 'cause you're overreacted, too
But since you're down there
Where will I just be
I'm getting fine, girl
Dressing up for stormy weather
So touch me down in the past
Where my mother will last
And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast
Yeah, down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah!
Well, I don't want to slide away with you
I've got ten little soldiers pointing at you
Honey, you've just left me for a new one
It doesn't matter, baby, 'cause your hair is ugly, too
But since you're down there
Where will I just be
I'm getting fine, girl
Dressing up for stormy weather
So touch me down in the past
Where my mother will last
And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast
Yeah, down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah, yeah!
Well, I don't want to hang around with you
I've got my motor, baby, and I'm gonna see you through
You think I want to be alone with you
It doesn't matter, baby, 'cause you're overreacted, too
And touch me down in the past
Where my mother will last
And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast
Yeah, down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah, yeah!
That you remember
That you remember
Now, come on
Come on
Now, come on
Come on
Come on
I've got my motor, baby, and I'm gonna see you through
You think I want to be alone with you
It doesn't matter, baby, 'cause you're overreacted, too
But since you're down there
Where will I just be
I'm getting fine, girl
Dressing up for stormy weather
So touch me down in the past
Where my mother will last
And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast
Yeah, down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah!
Well, I don't want to slide away with you
I've got ten little soldiers pointing at you
Honey, you've just left me for a new one
It doesn't matter, baby, 'cause your hair is ugly, too

Where will I just be
I'm getting fine, girl
Dressing up for stormy weather
So touch me down in the past
Where my mother will last
And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast
Yeah, down in the past where my mother will last
And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah, yeah!
Well, I don't want to hang around with you

And it's true that I'm in for a punch and a blast

And she will make sure that you remember
Yeah, yeah!
That you remember
That you remember
Now, come on
Come on
Now, come on
Come on
Come on

it's about a guy, who has had enough of his present (ex-?)girlfriend, and vows to rely only on his mother in future. so the girl is "down in the past" and his mother "will last". his mother has always been there for him and "she will make sure that you remember" might mean, that his mother is furious about the girl making him sad or angry or unhappy overall.
