[00:01.09] What a drag it is getting old

[00:05.62] --

[00:13.20] Kids are different today

[00:15.59] I hear every mother say

[00:17.89] Mother needs something today to calm her down

[00:22.60] And though she's not really ill

[00:24.98] Theres a little yellow pill

[00:27.57] She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper

[00:32.22] And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day

[00:41.81] Things are different today

[00:44.10] I hear every mother say

[00:46.38] Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag

[00:51.10] So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak

[00:55.88] And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper

[01:00.55] And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day

[01:05.31] --

[01:10.00] Doctor please, some more of these

[01:14.56] Outside the door, she took four more

[01:19.54] What a drag it is getting old

[01:26.56] Men just aren't the same today

[01:28.91] I hear every mother say

[01:31.28] They just don't appreciate that you get tired

[01:36.21] They're so hard to satisfy, you can tranquilize your mind

[01:40.86] So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper

[01:45.54] And four help you through the night, help to minimize your plight

[01:54.87] Doctor please, some more of these

[01:59.48] Outside the door, she took four more

[02:04.41] What a drag it is getting old

[02:11.48] Life's just much too hard today

[02:13.78] I hear every mother say

[02:16.12] The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore

[02:21.01] And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose

[02:25.71] No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper

[02:30.15] They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day
