Ask Ma - The Slits

Women make some men that are

Mothers make some boy (we love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some man that are

Mothers make some boy (We love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

And we’re left to pick up

The pieces and get

Boys who hate girls

And their mother’s rejects

Mother who need us to be their mother

Or who hate us 'cause of their mother

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some men that are

Mothers make some boy (we love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some man that are

Mothers make some boy (We love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Then females complain

About man who change or explain

Mothers was dressed and oppressed, yes, by the other sex

However, who’s to blame?

When we get messed up men to tame

Why are there so many mommy’s boys

Who take away those marital joys

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some men that are

Mothers make some boy (we love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some man that are

Mothers make some boy (We love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Now we get to pick up the pieces

To deal with life’s …

Like of babies, which is ordained

Okay, for that I’m trained

But to pick up shit for men

Repeatedly time and time again

I refuse, they’re not helpless

Like babies, but make a worst mess

Mentally or physically

Small abilities

We’re there for you emotionally

Or psychologically

What’s the point to keep on going

In the same circle keep flowing

Our sons are those same males

Who leave us in a spiritual jail

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some men that are

Mothers make some boy (we love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some man that are

Mothers make some boy (We love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

And now we’re left to pick up

The pieces and get

Boys who hate girls

And their mother’s rejects

Mother who need us to be their mother

Or who hate us 'cause of their mother

So is us to make change

Break the cycle, rearrange

And look up how we can bring up boys

To be more loving

We continue to get grown men

Who need us to be their mothers and feed

On our weaknesses or … (whatever)

Or who hate us 'cause of their mother

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some men that are

Mothers make some boy (we love)

Mothers wound some boys we have

Wonder about men (ask ma)

Women make some man that are

Mothers make some boy (We love)

Mothers wound some boys we have
