Danzig - Mother (1988) Lyrics Video

Thematically, “Mother” is a rhetorical challenge to parents, primarily inspired by Al and Tipper Gore who, along with the Parents Music Resource Center, introduced the Parental Advisory warning placed on albums that contain explicit sexual or violent content.
The song was written so that it could also be interpreted as coming from somebody who intends to show a sheltered person the harsh realities of life, and taunts that person’s parents. It also has the overtones of Satanism vs Christianity that Danzig is well known for.
On original 1988 release, the song grew an underground cult following. A 1993 re-recording of the track as “Mother ‘93” was put into rotation on MTV and the song found a mainstream audience. It peaked at #43 in the US and #62 in the UK, and remains Danzig’s only mainstream crossover.
[Verse 1]
Mother
Tell your children not to walk my way
Tell your children not to hear my words
What they mean, what they say, mother
Mother
Can you keep them in the dark for life?
Can you hide them from the waiting world?
Oh mother
Father
Gonna take your daughter out tonight
Gonna show her my world
Oh, father
[Chorus]
Not about to see your light
But if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's like
'Til you're bleeding
Not about to see your light
And if you wanna find hell with me
I can show you what it's
[Verse 2]
Mother
Tell your children not to hold my hand
Tell your children not to understand
Oh, mother
Father
Do you wanna bang heads with me?
Do you wanna feel everything?
Oh, father
