What a drag it is getting old

Kids are different today I hear every mother say

Mother needs something today to calm her down

And though she's not really ill

There's a little yellow pill

She goes running for the shelter

Of her mother's little helper

And it helps her on her way gets

Her through her busy day

Things are different today

I hear every mother say

Cooking fresh food for her husband's just a drag

So she buys an instant cake and she burns a frozen steak

And goes running for the shelter

Of her mother's little helper

And two help her on her way get her

Through her busy day

Doctor please some more of these

Outside the door she took four more

What a drag it is getting old

Men just aren't the same today

I hear every mother say

They just don't appreciate that you get tired

They're so hard to satisfy you can tranquilize your mind

So go running for the shelter

Of a mother's little helper

And four help you through the night

Help to minimize your plight

Doctor please some more of these

Outside the door she took four more

What a drag it is getting old

Life's just much too hard today I hear every mother say

The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore

And if you take more of those you will get an overdose

No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper

They just helped you on your way through your busy dying day

Hey
