Forget It

So you want I should be known as the mother of a loser
Meet my daughter, former lawyer, now a failure, please excuse her
And you want that I should see the look upon the rabbi's face
When she learns that Miss Ivy League Attorney's a disgrace

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it
Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it
In your search for happiness, you never thought of me (forget it)
You haven't caused me so much pain since my episiotomy (forget it)

So you want that I should throw
Away my sterling reputation (forget it)
While you blab about your new bohemian vocation

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it
Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it
You wanna throw your life away, go ahead, sure
Oy! What am I gonna tell Emilio at the frame store?

(Hook)

Moms always worry about what semi-strangers gonna say
And they're right, we think about it all day
We're judging you, we don't have our own lives
You're more important than our own kids and our own wives
God, I made Rebecca's graduation collage
But I guess her success was just a mirage
Damn, Naomi, thought you was a good mom
I'm gonna mess up all your frames from now on
(Outro)

Moms don't suffer tsuris and pain
To have their daughters bring them shame

Moms don't suffer tsuris and pain
To have their daughters bring them shame

Forget it

Forget it

Everything's fine

Forget it
