Ask any of the chickies

Got a little motto

Always sees me through

When you're good to Mama

Mama's good to you

You might think I'm here

to make your Iife a Iiving heII ,

There's a lot of favors

You do one for Mama

She'll do one for you

if you Iet me.

So if there's something

that upsets you

or makes you unhappy

in any way. . .

don't shoot your fat-ass mouth

'cause I don't give a sh*t.

They say that life

is tit for tat

And that's the way l live

So l deserve a lot of tat

For what l've got to give
