Mother Knows Best (From "Tangled"/Soundtrack Version)

You want to go outside Why Rapunzel Look at you as fragile as a flower Still a little sapling just a sprout You know why we stay up in this tower I know but That's right to keep you safe and sound dear Guess I always knew this day was coming Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest Soon but not yet But Shh Trust me pet Mother knows best Mother knows best Listen to your mother It's a scary world out there Mother knows best One way or another Something will go wrong I swear Ruffians thugs Poison ivy quick and cannibal and snake The plague No Yes But Also large bugs Men with pointy teeth and Stop no more you'll just upset me Mother's right here Mother will protect you Darling here's what I suggest Skip the drama Stay with mama Mother knows best Go ahead get trampled by a rhino Go ahead get mugged and left for dead Me I'm just your mother what do I know I only bathed and changed and nursed you Go ahead and leave me I deserve it Let me die alone here be my guest When it's too late You'll see just wait Mother knows best Mother knows best Take it from your mumsy On your own you won't survive Sloppy underdressed Immature clumsy Please they'll eat you up alive Gullible naive Positively grubby Ditzy and a bit well hmm vague Plus I believe Gettin' kinda chubby I'm just saying 'cuase I wuv you Mother understands Mother's here to help you All I have is one request Rapunzel Yes Don't ever ask to leave this tower again Yes mother I love you very much dear I love you more I love you most Don't forget it You'll regret it Mother knows best
