Mama (Loves a Crackhead)

[Verse 1] So he says he loves you, wants you to be his wife? But he's too hooked on the crack pipe for that to be right for that to be right It's all lies, none of it's true Though it hurts, you know what've you gotta do, cut him loose Like a dirty needle, you don't know where he's been All I know is I've seen him high when he says that he's clean There was a gray patch when he first buss on the scene But as the mystery unraveled, all became black and white, know what I mean? We can never be friends, he can go to hell No more hanging 'round the house like a bad smell Either he goes or I do?, it's your decision mama, it's all on you You're too old to be naive and I know you ain't ignorant That's what's botherin' me ma, cause you're goin' on different I ain't never seen you loved up like this before Why is it everybody but you can see that you deserve more? [Hook] Mama, can't you see What he's tryin' to do, to you and to me? Mama, it's so black and white While you're just sittin' at home, he's out smokin' crack tonight And I can't go for that No, no can do I can't go for that Can't for that, can't go for that [Verse 2] When I first met him, thought he was cool Had a few things in common like supporting Arsenal I saw the way he made you happy like a love fool Calmed you down when times were hard up stressful But all that don't matter to shit When he starts acting like a little kid Treating you as if you were some kind of bitch Mama you ain't rich, but still he borrows your money And never pays you back, cause every penny he gets, he spends on that Bad habit of his, fuckin' takes the piss Bringin' that slut in to our house, that's the ultimate diss Now I know you threw him out for that But how long's it gonna be before you take him back? Mum I know you're lonely, but you're the only One who can't see that this bloke is a phony And he don't really care 'bout you Mum He just says he does cause he fuckin' thinks you're dumb [Hook] [Verse 3] My mama loves a crackhead Is that what I'm supposed to tell my friends? When they ask me how I'm doing, am I supposed to pretend? Act like there's nothing's wrong when there blatantly is? Turn the other cheek when he's takin' the piss? Fuck that, that's not how the man of the house acts I gotta defend my territory, guard my patch When I know he's doing dodgy shit behind your back Put my foot down, stand my ground and that This has got to stop, whether the guy buns crack or not His head ain't there he's fuckin' lost the plot 'Dead and Buried' is the apt phrase, can't even act right Can't even act his age, that's so fuckin' lame Thirty-something years old, he should feel ashamed If I was him I'd slit my veins at the mains Run a lukewarm bath and sit in it till my arteries drain Do it right this time, so I ain't gotta to do it again Cause there's nothing more pathetic than a cry for help Either you do or you don't wanna kill yourself Everybody knows you got a problem so it don't matter if you admit it What you gotta do is be a man and fuckin' deal with it [Bridge] I know the truth hurts, mama But this shit has gotta be said He don't love you, he never has and that's a fact Cause the only thing he really loves in this world is crack [Hook] [Post-Hook] I can't go for that, no, no can do I can't go for that, can't for that, can't go for that, no I can't go for that
