Ma and Pa - Fishbone

There once was a Ma that wanted her

There once was a Pa that wanted her

I know she’s confused

She’s my blood sister

She told me the blues as she start to shiver

Only a child in the middle of a war

She’s a problem child now because of a divorce

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Well there’s a lot of money

For all the attorneys

It’s not just a fight for child custody

'Cause Ma and Pa’s revenge

Is making little sister bleed

Fussin' and fightin' through a family life

Make her wanna take drugs and be out of line

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

Fighting for love on an angel’s feather

Why don’t ya’ll get your shit together

Well it’s three the hard way

Doin' it the wrong way

Ma hates Pa, Pa hates Ma

Little sister say:

«What the hey, hey!»

Well there’s an evil streak there

With a righteous leak I fear

That’s why a child goes stray

To live a life another day

Mom and a-Pop in a family fury

Brother said:

«Little sister, don’t you worry.»

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

Why’d the family rise and fall

Hey Ma and Pa

Well it’s three the hard way

Doin' it the wrong way

Ma hates Pa, Pa hates Ma

Little sister say

«What the hey!»

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

What the hell is wrong with ya’ll

Hey Ma and Pa

Fighting for love on an angel’s feather

Why don’t ya’ll get your shit together
