Mother of Invention

Oh, what a pretty thing it is I've been looking for it all my life All my life I've been looking for this thing that I see And here it now is, and I don't know what to do with it And I feel like I'm gonna break it Or put it away and forget about it Oh what a tragedy that would be I feel like I am supposed to be The mother of a new invention I never built no bicycle I never got no horse I never got no locomotive But I do have you of course I've got you of course Train pulls into the station Train conductor tells me that it's my stop The place I longed to be all those years but was not And here I now am, I don't know what to do I feel I wanna run away Or get back on that train - take me away Oh what a tragedy that would be I feel like I am supposed to be The mother of a new invention I never built no bicycle I never got no horse I never got no locomotive But I do have you of course I've got you of course Never gonna say that it hurts I don't wanna cry Never gonna say that it hurts cause Here am I, here am I
