Sneaking in at 1 a.m.
Broke the curfew set for ten
Like mother like daughter
She thinks she knows it all at seventeen
Mama flips the kitchen light
Bound to be another fight
Like mother like daughter
She knows too much to be taught anything
Words too harsh and words too kind
Wasted on a teenage mind
Mother knows too well
She's been through this before
When grandma used to wait up late
Making sure she got home safe
And tell her not to do it
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Funny how the tables turn
Finally, as a mom she learns
Like mother like daughter
She thought she knew it all at seventeen
Words too harsh and words too kind
Wasted on a teenage mind
Mother knows too well
She's been through this before
When grandma used to wait up late
Making sure she got home safe
And tell her not to do it
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Funny how the tables turn
Finally, as a mom she learns
Like mother like daughter
She thought she knew it all at seventeen
