JOHN LENNON

- Mother Lyrics

Mother, you had me but I never had you
I wanted you but you didn't want me
So I got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye
Father, you left me but I never left you
I needed you but you didn't need me
So I just got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye
Children, don't do what I have done
I couldn't walk and I tried to run
So I got to tell you
Goodbye goodbye
Mama don't go
Daddy come home

What is the meaning behind Mother lyrics?


When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, John Lennon in his song 'Mother 2010' can be heard expressing feelings of abandonment and longing for parental love through the lyrics. The metaphors of 'Mother' and 'Father' stand for the emotional void and the desire for connection, while the appeal for 'Mama, don't go, Daddy, come home' captures a strong wish for family reunion and emotional healing. Mother lyrics are mainly focused on heartbreak, despair, angst, nostalgia, and solitude. The same time the song reflects the aspect of abandonment, the longing for connection, and regret all together that leads to warning. The lyrics carry themes of family relationships and emotional suffering which might be considered unsuitable for little children without parental assistance. But then again, there is no harsh language, violence, or sexual content involved.
