I really like this song because it's one of the first real rock songs from The Cardigans and it is a really really cool song and i really love it and i think this is the best song on the First Band On The Moon album.

Lyrics:


Baby boy, your face is pretty
And your life's a toy
Master man, I'm never better
Than your latest plan
Poor dummy, what are you gonna try to be?
Where are you gonna go without me now?
I've been you mother, I've been your father
Who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
Maybe I was your whore, who can ask me for more?
Superstar, I've tried to educate
Your childish heart
Made your bed and I was in it
When your faith was dead
Poor dummy, what are you gonna try to be?
Where are you gonna go without me now?
I've been you mother, I've been your father
Who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
Maybe I was your whore, who can ask me for more?
Sweetie pie, I'm you personal pro, you know
You know what number to try, when to cry
I've been you mother, I've been your father
Who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
Maybe I was your whore
I've been you mother, I've been your father
Who can ask me for more?
I've been your sister, I've been your mistress
Maybe I was your whore, who can ask me for more?
You can ask me for more~~~

For a time I liked this better than Lovefool. Still love this, but I like Lovefool better these days.
