Freddie Mercury, 1976 Kenny Everett Radio Show

"Well this one in fact is a track written by Brian actually, I dunno why. Maybe he was in one of his vicious moods. I think he’s trying to out do me after “Death On Two Legs” actually."

Brian May, Rockline 1991

I'll tell you the truth, I know what happened. Sometimes you get a little riff, and you just put some words with it, and then you don't even think about what they mean. Now I'm remember thinking, now this isn't a good enough title for this song, but everyone said: "Well actually, it sounds okay," and so we kind of lyrically built it around that. That's the truth, folks.

Lyrics

Get your party gown and get your pigtail down
And get your heart beating baby
Got my timing right I got my act all tight

It's gotta be tonight
My little school babe
Your mama says you don't
And your daddy says you won't
And I'm boiling up inside
Ain't no way I'm gonna lose out this time

Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Lock your daddy out of doors
I don't need him nosing around
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Give me all your love tonight

'You're such a dirty louse go get out of my house'
That's all I ever get from your family ties
In fact I don't think I ever heard
A single little civil word from those guys
I don't give a light
I'm gonna make out all right
I've got a sweetheart hand
To put a stop to all that
Sniping and grousing

Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Take your little brother swimming
With a brick that's all right
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Or you ain't no friend of mine

Your mama and your daddy
Gonna plague me till I die
I can't understand it
Because I'm a peace loving guy
Tie your mother down
Tie your mother down
Get that big big big big big big
Daddy out the door
Tie your mother down yeah
Tie your mother down
Give me all your love tonight
All your love tonight
