Mother Madam Lyrics

Now's the time to break these chains
Now's the time to pack these things along
You're a big girl in the same small town
Pick yourself up off the ground
Mother Madam
Mother Madam
Mother Madam

It's another sticky corporate afternoon
With all the simple deals out there on the moon
Now's the time to break these chains
Now's the time to pack these things along
We wouldn't leave here without you
We wouldn't be here without you
Mother Madam
Mother Madam
Mother Madam

Don't get carried away so soon
Don't get carried away so soon
Don't get carried away too soon

Mom, I couldn't find you
You were lost out of space
Mom, I would invite you to escape

I wouldn't leave here without you
I wouldn't be here without you
We wouldn't leave here without you
We wouldn't be here without you
Mother Madam
Mother Madam
Mother Madam

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song really shows the kind of person Ott is. Despite how much we owe our mothers, very few male artists will write a song like this and with this much sentiment. Ott's good people.
