Mother Knows Best


Oh, that one thing

That one thing I'd need

on a deserted island

is not a thing indeed

 

She goes by mom, or mommy, or mother

If I were stranded on an island

I wouldn't prefer any other

To be by my side

to keep me company

To talk to

To listen to

Until help finally came to save us in any degree
