Been It Lyrics
baby boy
your face is pretty and your life's a toy
master man
I'm never better than your latest plan
poor donee
what are you gonna try to be?
where are you gonna go without me now?
I've been your mother, I've been your father
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
superstar
I've tried to educate your childish heart
I made your bed
and I was in it when your faith was dead
poor donee
what are you gonna try to be?
where are you gonna go without me now?
I've been your mother, I've been your father
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
(mmm, yeah...)
sweetiepie
I'm you personal pro, you know
you know what number to try, when to cry...
I've been your mother, I've been your father
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
I've been your mother, I've been your father
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
you can't ask me for more...
your face is pretty and your life's a toy
master man
I'm never better than your latest plan
poor donee
what are you gonna try to be?
where are you gonna go without me now?
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
I've tried to educate your childish heart
I made your bed
and I was in it when your faith was dead
poor donee
what are you gonna try to be?
where are you gonna go without me now?
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
(mmm, yeah...)
I'm you personal pro, you know
you know what number to try, when to cry...
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
maybe I was your whore
who can ask me for more?
you can't ask me for more...

to me, this song is about somebody who was always there for a lover, yet the other person didn't value this as much as they should've.
From the CD insert, the last line of the chorus is: maybe I was your whore
I agree that this song is about giving your all for someone and them just never stepping up to giving back or even growing into their potential.
This song always comes back into my life. It's about a girl (at least in this situation, I can see a guy in this situation too) who supports her lover in everything they do without asking for anything in return... and in return she gets nothing.
So. Damn. True.
