Forget It

(Verse 1)

[NAOMI]

So you want I should be known as the mother of a loser

Meet my daughter, former lawyer, now a failure, please excuse her

And you want that I should see the look upon the rabbi's face

When she learns that Miss Ivy League Attorney's a disgrace

(Chorus)

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it

In your search for happiness, you never thought of me (forget it)

You haven't caused me so much pain since my episiotomy (forget it)

(Verse 2)

So you want that I should throw away my sterling reputation (forget it)

While you blab about your new bohemian vocation

(Chorus)

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it

Forget it, forget it, you can just forget it, forget it

You wanna throw your life away, go ahead, sure

Oy! What am I gonna tell Emilio at the frame store?

(Hook)

[EMILIO]

Moms always worry about what semi-strangers gonna say

And they're right, we think about it all day

We're judging you, we don't have our own lives

You're more important than our own kids and our own wives

God, I made Rebecca's graduation collage

But I guess her success was just a mirage

Damn, Naomi, thought you was a good mom

I'm gonna mess up all your frames from now on

(Outro)

[NAOMI]

Moms don't suffer tsuris and pain

To have their daughters bring them shame

[NAOMI AND MOMS]

Moms don't suffer tsuris and pain

To have their daughters bring them shame
