Lyrics
(Lyrics by Gerrit Graham)

Jus' like mama said
Better not lose your head
Better off dyin'
Dyin' in bed

Teas of smokin' sage
Girl told me try to act my age
Look at me now
In my velvet cage
All the rage

Ain't no good, but it does seem right
Guess I'll be chewin' on this all night
The band plays anyway
No matter what they say
The band plays anyway
Lights all flashin' red
Jus' like mama said

Feathers in her hair
Alien sense of flair
Onerous charms
Gonna take you there
Take you there
Have a care

Sun is fallin' like a rock down a well
Laughin' and screamin', I can't seem to tell
Ah the price of fame
Ah the price of fame
Everybody knows the name
Drums beat in my head
Jus' like mama said

Faces start to blur
Nobody is who they were
Moon shinin' ghosts
How can I be sure
How can I be sure
Ain't no cure

Jus' like mama said
Jus' like mama said
Jus' like mama said
Jus' like mama said
...

Jus' like mama said
Better not lose your head
Jus' like mama said
Jus' like mama said
...
