Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Lady Madonna
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
Who finds the money
When you pay the rent?
Did you think that money was heaven-sent?
[Bridge]
Friday night arrives without a suitcase
Sunday morning creeping like a nun
Monday's child has learned to tie his bootlace
See how they run
[Verse 2]
Lady Madonna
Baby at your breast
Wonders how you manage to feed the rest
[Bridge]
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba, ba-ba, ba-ba
Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba
[Bridge]
See how they run
[Verse 3]
Lady Madonna
Lying on the bed
Listen to the music playing in your head
[Bridge]
Tuesday afternoon is never ending (Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
Wednesday morning papers didn't come (Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba, ba-ba, ba-ba)
Thursday night your stockings needed mending (Ba-ba-ba-ba, ba-ba, ba-ba-ba)
See how they run
[Verse 4]
Lady Madonna
Children at your feet
Wonder how you manage to make ends meet
