A D E A

A D E A

VERSE1

  AI scream at you for Dsharing

  A'n I curse you just for Dcaring

  AI hate the clothes you're Bmwearing, they're so Epretty

  A'n I tell to not to Dsee me

  A'n I tell you not to Dfeel me

  A'n I make your life a Bmdrag, it's such a Epity

'n I watch your warm glow palin'

'n I watch your sparkle fadin'

As you realise you're failin', cos you're so good

Now I don't mean to upset you

But there's so much crime to get through

If only I could make it easier, then I would

CHORUS

  AOh I wish I was your Dmother

  AI wish I'd been your Dfather

  A'n then I would have Bmseen you

  Would have Dbeen you as a Echild

  APlayed houses with your Dsisters

  AAnd wrestled with all your Dbrothers

  AAnd then who knows

  BmI might have felt a Dfamily for a Ewhile

Verse2

SAME CHORDS AS VERSE1)

It's no use me pretendin'

You give and I do the spendin'

Is there a happy ending, I don't think so

Cos even if we make it

I'll be too far out to take it

You'll have to try and shake it from my head

CHORUS

Oooooh I wish I was your mother

I wish I'd been your father

'n then I would have seen you

Would have been you as a child

Played houses with your sister

And wrestled with all your brothers

And then who knows

I might have felt a family for a while
