Lyrics for Song: Mummy's Boy
Lyrics for Album: One Step Beyond... [1979]
(Oy !) in the pub, about seven thirty
Mother makes sure that his face ain't dirty
Him and mother go everywhere
Holds her hand without a care
Lived with mother for fourty years
The neighbourhood said that he must be queer
Normal folk a-just don't like that
Glad he can't hear behind his back
When mother dies, he will have a cry
'cos he'll be on his own
He's frightened stiff, would he come to this?
Will he lose her to the heavenly home?
In the pub, about seven thirty
Mother makes sure that his face ain't dirty
Him and mother go everywhere
Holds her hand without a care
Lived with mother for fourty years
The neighbourhood said that he must be queer
Normal folk a-just don't like that
Glad he can't hear behind his back
When mother dies, he'll have a cry
'cos he'll be on his own
He's frightened stiff, would he come to this?
Will he lose her to the heavenly home?
Once went out with a London girl
Dirty weekend in a hotel
Broke it off when she got shirty
She was twelve and he was thirty
Right after that he was bedsore
He wouldn't go out with girls no more
From that day since, he never has
He wants to do a-something dirty

Mummy's Boy
Madness's 'Mummy's Boy' stands as a quintessential example of the band's early punk energy, delivered with the frenetic precision characteristic of their 1979 debut album, One Step Beyond. The track captures the raw, chaotic spirit of the era, blending fast-paced instrumentation with the group's signature vocal delivery. As a defining recording from their formative period, it showcases the band's ability to channel the rebellious ethos of the late seventies while establishing the rhythmic foundation that would later define their broader catalog. The song remains a staple of their live performances, illustrating how their initial sound evolved into a more polished yet equally spirited style in subsequent releases. |
