I ain't complainin' but I'm tired so I'm just sayin' what I think
And if we're bein' honest then honestly I think I need a drink
My baby's growin' up she thinks she's fallin' all in love and that I hate her
At seventeen she's just like me when I was seventeen so I don't blame her
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do?
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do about it?
Remember when we used to be everything they'd ever need?
We had them believin' we were cool
It's like it happened overnight
We're always wrong, they're always right
We used to be the ones breakin' the rules
Now we're just mothers and we're just fathers
Teenage daughters
She rolls her eyes when I'm funny but she's sweet when she wants money and her freedom
Oh my God, she's got a car, swears they won't go far tonight, wish I believed her
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do?
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do about it?
Remember when we used to be everything they'd ever need?
We had them believin' we were cool
It's like it happened overnight
We're always wrong, they're always right
We used to be the ones breakin' the rules
Now we're just mothers and we're just fathers
Teenage daughters
They're beautiful, wild and free
Everything we wish we could be
But they're still crazy
Oh, you know they make us crazy
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do?
Do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do, what are we gonna do about it?
Remember when we used to be everything they'd ever need?
We had them believin' we were cool
It's like it happened overnight
We're always wrong, they're always right
We used to be the ones breakin' the rules
Now we're just mothers and we're just fathers
Teenage daughters
Yeah, teenage daughters
I ain't complainin' but I'm tired
So I'm just sayin' what I think
If we're bein' honest then honestly
I think I need a drink
