Mommy, can I go out and kill tonight?
Misfits
Mommy, Can I Go Out And Kill Tonight? (duh!)
There’s a dream I keep having
Where my mama comes to me
And kneels down over by the window
And says a prayer for me
Got my own way of prayin’
But every one’s begun
With a southern accent
Where I come from
Tom Petty, Southern Accent
(And in deference to the aforementioned thread…)
Mama, mama, please no more husbands
I don’t know who my daddy is.

Hmm. maybe a greater challenge would be to find rock sonds that mention mothers in a positive way…
I’ll always love my momma
She’s my favorite girl
I’ll always love my momma
She brought me in this world
The Intruders I’ll Always Love My Momma
Jim Morrison’s oedipus complex couldn’t be more clear than it is on the Doors first album on the very popular (and long) track entitled The End.
Your mother she’s an heiress, owns a block in Saint John’s Wood
And your father’d be there with her
If he only could
But don’t play with me, 'cause you’re playing with fire
Rolling Stones, Play With Fire
“…and goes running for the shelter of her mother’s little helper…”
