Emma Blackery - Cry to Your Mother

I feel a tension coming over the room
And it’s playing with the vibe
Like you always do, all the time
You had me feeling so blue
All the things that you said
That I cannot forget

How can I cope with all the shit that you do?
Always making the decision to adjust the vision
I pick my battles but I never picked you
I’m not here for your attrition
Babe I’m not your competition

So tell me baby, what’s the problem?
Let me set the scene for ya
Don’t mean to be mean, yeah
Mean, yeah
Why don’t you stop being a cry baby all the time?
Why don’t you go and cry to your mother?

I get the feeling you don’t seem to understand
I’m not the saboteur that you like to paint me as
It’s just another example of how you twist things
Cos you’re the permanent victim

I always knew you couldn’t handle the truth
And now the wounds got you reeling
Can’t you say just what you’re feeling?

So tell me baby, what’s the problem?
Let me set the scene for ya
Don’t mean to be mean, yeah
Mean, yeah
Why don’t you stop being a cry baby all the time?
Why don’t you go and cry to your mother?

So tell me baby what’s your secret?
Always bring the heat
Then you turn it ‘round on me, yeah
Me, yeah
Why don’t you stop being a cry baby all the time?
Why don’t you go and cry to your mother?

Cry to your mother
Cry, cry to your mother
Cry to your mother
Yeah, cry, cry to your mother
Cry to your mother
Cry, cry to your mother
Cry to your mother
Yeah, cry, cry to your mother
Cry to your mother
Cry, cry to your mother
Cry to your mother
Yeah, cry, cry to your mother

So tell me baby, what’s the problem?
Let me set the scene for ya
Don’t mean to be mean, yeah
Mean, yeah
Why don’t you stop being a cry baby all the time?
Why don’t you go and cry to your mother?

So tell me baby what’s your secret?
Always bring the heat
Then you turn it ‘round on me, yeah
Me, yeah
Why don’t you stop being a cry baby all the time?
Why don’t you go and cry to your mother?
