Mama's in love, Papa's in love It's such a shame they don't love each other papa's in a jam, Mama's throwin' pans The game's up - it's time to run for cover Everybody's cryin' but they can't stop hopin' Everybody's lookin' for the door that's open Mama's making heat to keep the old fire smokin' Papa's hangin' on to his old love token. You got love but you ain't got style You want your freedom but in a while You're lost children but you know for sure You gotta find out what your love is for. (Oh baby life ain't what it used to be) (You're tellin' me - not since you 'been hangin' round here) (Mama what you screamin' for actin' like a demon for And hey mama quit wavin' them hands in the air) (Don't talk to me that way) (Well I don't see no reason to raise your voice to me) (You put fat in the fire you got meat for brains) (Well you don't give me comfort and a Man's gotta get it somewhere) (Ooh that's a shame) (Yeah, well......) Mama's hangin' on to every word that's spoken But Papa's hangin' onto his old love token Oh I don't wanna leave you Mama Oh I don't wanna leave you Papa Long haired women gonna turn you to stone You can't beat 'em - cos you need 'em You gotta live - you gotta love Your love token's gotta fit like a glove Listen to the story 'bout the dream that's broken You gotta keep a hold of your old love token Oh I don't wanna leave you Mama Oh I don't wanna leave you Papa No I don't wanna leave you alone But I'm gonna have to Babe
