Love Token lyrics

Mama`s in love, Papa`s in love
It`s such a shame they don`t love each other.
Papa`s in a jam, Mama`s throwin` pans
The game`s up - it`s time to run for cover

Everybody`s cryin` but they can`t stop hopin`
Everybody`s lookin` for the door that`s open
Mama`s making heat to keep the fire smokin`
Papa`s hangin` on his old love token

You got love but you ain`t got style
You want your freedom but in a while
You`re lost children but you know for sure
You gotta find out what your love is for

[Oh baby life ain`t what is used to be]
(You`re telling me - not since you `been hangin` round here)
[Mama`s what you screamin` for actin` like a demon for]
And hey mama quit wavin` them hands in the air
(Don`t talk to me that way)
[well I don`t see no reason to raise your voice to me]
(You put fat in the fire you got meat for brains)
[Well you don`t give me comfort and a Man`s
gotta get it somewhere]
(Ooh that`s a shame) [Yeah, well...]
Mama`s hangin` on to every word that`s spoken
But Pap`s hangin` onto his old love token

Oh I don`t wanna leave you Mama
Oh I don`t wanna leave you Papa

Long haired women gonna you to stone
You can`t beat em - cos you need `em
You gotta live - you gotta love
Your love token`s gotta fit like a glove

Listen to the story `bout the dream that`s broken
You gotta keep a hold of your old love token

Oh I don`t wanna leave you Mama
Oh I don`t wanna leave you Papa
No I don`t wanna leave you alone
But I`m gonna have to Babe
