E
Couldn't keep a secret, got a concrete skull
You couldn't shut up, you're an imbecile
You're an ugly dog, there's nothing to gain
You couldn't shut up, you had a bad, bad brain

Couldn't hold your tongue, you were just too young
Like a two-year-old, you told, you told
You were all the same, jellybean brain
Everyone's a secret nerd, everyone's a closet lame

Chorus:
A                        F      D
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mama's boy.
A                        F      D
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mama's boy.
A                        F      D
Ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-ma-mama's boy.

I don't want to work in a hot dog stand
Be a busboy, messenger, or a doorman
It's an abstract world, you're an abstract man
Abstract city don't give a damn

Couldn't keep a secret, got a concrete skull
You couldn't shut up, you're an imbecile
You're an ugly dog, there's nothing to gain
You couldn't shut up, you had a bad, bad brain
