| Lyrics: | (Voiceover)
And now, Ladies and Gentlemen,
The keeper of the keys,
The countess of the
clink
the mistress of murderers row,
Matron Mama Morton!
(Queen Latifah)
Ask
any of the chickies in my pen
they'll tell you I'm the biggest mother hen.
I love them all
and all of them love me
because the system works,
the system called
reciprocity.
Got a little motto,
Always sees me through:
"When you're good to
Mama, Mama's good to you."
Theres a lot of favours I'm prepared to do,
You do one for
Mama, she'll do one for you.
They say that life is tit for tat,
and that's the way I
live.
So I deserve a lot of tat
For what I've got to give.
Don't you know that this
hand
washes that one too.
When you're good to Mama, Mama's good to you
If you want
my gravy
Pepper my Ragu
Spice it up for mama
She'll get hot for you
When they
pass that basket
Folks contribute too,
You put in for Mama,
She'll put out for
you
The folks at top the ladder
are the ones the world adores
So boost me up my
ladder, kid
and I'll boost you up yours
Lets all stroke together
Like the princeton
crew
When your stroking Mama, Mama's stroking you
So whats the one conclusion
I
could bring this number to -
When you're good to Mama, Mamas good to you |
