Mama's Broken Heart

I cut my bangs with some rusty kitchen scissors
 I screamed his name 'til the neighbours called the cops
 I numbed the pain at the expense of my liver
 Don't know what I did next, all I know, I couldn't stop
 Word got around to the barflies and the Baptists
 My mama's phone started ringin' off the hook
 I can hear her now sayin' she ain't gonna have it
 Don't matter how you feel, it only matters how you look
 Go and fix your makeup girl, it's just a breakup
 Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
 'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
 Even when you fall apart
 But this ain't my mama's broken heart
 ♪
 I wish I could be just a little less dramatic
 Like a Kennedy when Camelot went down in flames
 Leave it to me to be holdin' the matches
 When the fire trucks show up and there's nobody else to blame
 Can't get revenge and keep a spotless reputation
 Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make
 My mama came from a softer generation
 Where you get a grip and bite your lip just to save a little face
 Go and fix your makeup girl it's just a break-up
 Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
 'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
 Even when you fall apart
 But this ain't my mama's broken heart
 ♪
 Powder your nose, paint your toes
 Line your lips and keep 'em closed
 Cross your legs, dot your I's
 And never let 'em see you cry
 Go and fix your makeup, well it's just a break-up
 Run and hide your crazy and start actin' like a lady
 'Cause I raised you better, gotta keep it together
 Even when you fall apart
 But this ain't my mamma's broken heart
