YOUR MOTHER’S A HO

(lyrics: David Lefkowitz. Music: The Beatles’s “Your Mother Should Know” by John Lennon & Paul McCartney)

Last night when I was rubbing my horn
I found a site that proves your mother does porn
I’ve gotta say she puts on quite a show
Your mother’s a ho (oh no)
Your mother’s a ho

I’ll tell you again:
Maybe you think your mom has gone wrong
But it’s okay the way she handles a dong
Look at her tug and chug and bounce and blow
Your mother’s a ho (oh no)
Your mother’s a ho

Last night when I was shucking my corn
To my delight, I learned your mother does porn
She can do seven black guys in one go
Your mother’s a pro (whoa whoa)
Your mother’s a ho (ho ho)
I thought you should know (oh oh)
She never says no

Sorry, my friend:
Later tonight I’ll polish my schlong
and find the site with all your mother’s hot porn
Boy, would I like to bang her bajingo
Your mother’s a ho
Your mother’s a ho
Your mother’s a ho
She never says no (oh no)
Your mother’s a ho
Your mother’s a ho.

(c)2026 David Lefkowitz

******************************
NOTES & BACKSTORY:
[Aug. 2026] Was just coming out of sleep early this morning (Aug. 18, 2026) when I thought, “Hmm…I wonder if there are any more Beatle songs I can parody?” Over the past five decades, I’ve penned more than a dozen, ranging from the Bungalow Bill-based “Jeopardy Ken” (about quiz whiz Ken Jennings) to my recent “Hey Jews” (a rallying cry against rising anti-Semitism). Since I’ve been on something of a parody jag this whole year, I started running Beatles songs through my head searching for another victim.
The phrase “your mother does porn” came to me immediately, with the tagline “Your mother’s a ho” arriving soon after. In fact, by six A.M., the song was done and dusted, a new addition to the canon that commenced in 1979 with “I Wanna Hold Your Stump” and shows no signs of abating, particularly with songs about `bating.
