| " | Kids are different today," - I hear every mother say |

| Mother needs something today to calm her | down. |
| G | C | |
| And though | she's not really ill - There's a | little yellow pill |
| Am | Asus2 | Am | Asus2 | |
| She goes | running for the | shelter - Of a | mother's little | helper |
| Em | (riff) | |
| And it | helps her on her way - Gets her through her busy day |
| "Things are different today," - I hear every mother say |
| Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag! |
| So she buys an instant cake - And she burns her frozen steak |
| And goes running for the shelter - Of a mother's little helper |
| And two help her on her way - Get her through her busy day. |

| Doctor | please - Some more of | these - Outside the | door - She took four | more |
| Am | D | Em | (riff) | |
| What a | drag it | is getting | old |
| "Men just aren't the same today - I hear every mother say |
| They just don't appreciate that you get tired! |
| They're so hard to satisfy - You can tranquilise your mind |
| So go running for the shelter - Of a mother's little helper |
| And four help you through the night - Help to minimise your plight. |
| Doctor please - Some more of these - Outside the door - She took four more |
| What a drag it is getting old |
| "Life's just much too hard today," - I hear every mother say |
| The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore! |
| And if you take more of those - You will get an overdose |
| No more running to the shelter - Of a mother's little helper |

| They just helped you on your way - Through your busy dying day | Hey! |
