[Chorus]
Mother called me, told me no lies
And said, "Come home, son"
Doctor, tell me, what is my problem?
Maybe I've got none

[Verse 1]
I appreciate your concern
But you can not keep me off of the town
'Cause it keeps calling, calling me back
And making more mess then
And I leave home in huge fits of rage
And you will keep crying
So doctor, tell me, is my shoulder chipped?
'Cause it hurts and needs a fix, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]
A remedy, a remedy
I need a magic potion

[Chorus]
Mother called me, told me no lies
And said, "Come home, son"
Doctor, tell me, what is my problem?
Maybe I've got none
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
Father told me how to change a tyre
And how to tie my shoes up tight
He instructed everywhere productive
Every day and every night (Oh, is it?)
Another time that I break down
And embrace all my failures (Ohh)
'Cause I can not recall the things that exist
I mean about nuts and bolts (And you just put 'em here, son)

[Pre-Chorus]
A remedy, a remedy
I need a magic potion

[Chorus]
'Cause mother called me, told me no lies
And said, "Come home, son"
Doctor, tell me, what is my problem?
Maybe I've got none
[Bridge]
And could you tell me, what do I need?
Give me something interesting, oh, do it please
Give me some instructions, one, two and three
Give me something real to touch
Give me something real

[Chorus]
Mother called me, told me no lies
And said, "Come home, son"
Doctor, tell me, what is my problem?
Maybe I've got none

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh
