Текст песни
You can make them eat their greens
Go no screens
You can breastfeed until they're 17
You can read them all the books
Make them brush their teeth and floss
But still
You're gonna mess 'em up
No matter what you do
You're gonna mess 'em up
If you're always there, they'll say,
She never let me be independent
If you're not always there, they'll say
I always felt abandoned
Why stress yourself out to do it perfectly
When no matter what you do, they'll need therapy
I'm not saying don't try
But maybe don't try so hard
Leave them in the car
Forget their birthday
Yell at them more
Because you know that
You're gonna mess 'em up
No matter what you do
You're gonna mess 'em up
If you don't tell them about sex,
They'll say "she was so repressed."
If we tell them about sex
They'll say, "I was traumatized we she brought out the diagrams and the flip charts."
Just like you blamed your mother,
They're gonna blame you
You're gonna mess 'em up,
No matter what you do
