Lady Madonna

Lady Madonna
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage
To make ends meet
Who finds the money
When you pay the rent
Did you think that money
Was Heaven sent

Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creep in like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run

Lady Madonna
Baby at your breast
Wonder how you manage
To feed the rest

See how they run

Lady Madonna
Lying on the bed
Listen to the music
Playing in your head

Tuesday afternoon is never ending
Wednesday morning papers didn't come
Thursday night your stockings needed mending
See how they run

Lady Madonna
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage
To make ends meet
