(Billy proves that he's a better Lennon than Lennon...)

Laura calls me in the middle of the night

Passes on her painful information

Then these careless fingers

They get caught in her vise

Til they're bleeding on my coffee table

Living alone isn't all that it's cracked up to be

I'm on her side, why does she push the poison on me

Laura has a very hard time

All her life has been one long disaster

Then she tells me she suddenly believes

She's seen a very good sign

She'll be taking some aggressive action

I fight her wars while she's slamming her doors in my face

Failure to break was the only mistake that she made

Here I am feeling like a **** fool

Do I react exactly the way she intends me to

Every time I think I'm off the hook

She makes me lose my cool

I'm her machine and she can punch all the keys

She can push any button I was programmed through

Laura calls me when she needs a good fix

All her questions will get sympathetic answers

I should be so immunized to all of her tricks

She's surviving on her second chances

Sometimes I feel like this godfather deal is all wrong

How can she hold an umbilical cord for so long?

I've done everything I can

What else am I supposed to do

I'm her machine and she can punch all the keys

She can push any button I was programmed through

Laura loves me even if I don't care

That's my problem, that's her sacred absolution

If she had to, she would put herself in my chair

Even though I faced electrocution

She always says I'm the best friend that she's ever had

How do you hang up on someone who needs you that bad?

Definitely fits in as a flipside to Lennon's "Mother"...
