Your Mama Told You Lyrics by Memi

For The Little Things

2019

In your purple Toyota
The morning is waking slow
And the traffic's not moving
There's a gas leak in North town
And they can't seem to fix it up
So they call you, on Monday morning
You've been working two jobs
Still bills are stacking up, in this pile, on the coffee table
Nothing's ever enough
Money isn't worth, all the life that you're paying
Wonder when it all stops
When nobody want more, when we're done taking all for granted
Nothing's ever enough, nothing's ever enough, oh, oh
And it's all going faster
And you can't get a hold of things
And you’re longing and searching for something more
And you try to remеmber all the good things
That your mama told you
It turns around you see
It takes timе
But you just can't believe that
Believe that
No you just can’t believe that
Well it feels like, the world is against you, somehow
And your wheels just keep on spinning
Think you promised yourself once, that it’d all be worth it
Now you're doubting your ambition
You've been working two jobs
Still bills are stacking up, in this pile, on the coffee table
Nothing's ever enough
Money isn't worth, all the life that you're paying
Wonder when it all stops
When nobody want more, when we're done taking all for granted
Nothing's ever enough, nothing's ever enough, oh, oh
And it's all going faster
And you can't get a hold of things
And you’re longing and searching for something more
And you try to remember all the good things
That your mama told you
It turns around you see
It takes time
But you just can't believe that
Believe that
No you just can’t believe that
Ooh, you just wanna be happy, wild and young and free
Ooh, you just wanna be everything you intended to be
While it's all going faster
And you can't get a hold of things
And you’re longing and searching for something more
And you try to remember all the good things
That your mama told you
It turns around you see
It takes time
But you just can't believe that
Believe that
No you just can’t believe that
Believe that
No you just can’t believe that
