- Mother LyricsIn a packed-in-leather life
I was foolish, you were right
All night rookies pass the time
Looking for somewhere to go
Shiny boots are up their thighs
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?
Mother, may I stay all night?
Lift your curfew like the light
Collars turned against the cold
I'm looking for someone to hold
In your packed-in-leather night
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you?
Now that I can't remember
I need you more than ever
Why can't we be together always?
Mother in the night
Mother in the night
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?
I was foolish, you were right
All night rookies pass the time
Looking for somewhere to go
Shiny boots are up their thighs
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?
Mother, may I stay all night?
Lift your curfew like the light
Collars turned against the cold
I'm looking for someone to hold
In your packed-in-leather night
[Chorus]
Mother in the night
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you?
Now that I can't remember
I need you more than ever
Why can't we be together always?
Mother in the night
Mother in the night
Mother's left the building
We're the missing children
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you now?
Mother in the night
Calling you, calling you
Mother in the night
Where are you, where are you tonight?

✔️
When we reflect on what the artist might have meant, Blondie's 'Mother' explores the concepts of desire and abandonment, through the metaphor of 'mother in the night' which denotes a guiding or protecting presence whose absence is at the center of the narrator's feeling of being lost and unprotected. The theme of the song can be summarized as angst, solitude, heartbreak, reflection and despair. On the one hand, the song communicates the necessity of finding a place to belong, absence of guidance and a constant longing and yearning. The lyrics imply a longing, a separation and perhaps a rebellious conduct that would fit better an adult audience. The phrases 'patent leather life' and 'shiny boots are up their thighs' indicate an adult-like setting, and the constant allusion to 'Mother in the night' and 'missing children' point to a situation that is complex, emotional and perhaps even dangerous.
