27. Mother Knows Best, Tangled

All mothers who are also the daughters of smothers like Mother Gothell know too well that this song, sung from a manipulative mother to her naive daughter, isn’t just not as innocent as it sounds, but a warning worth heeding when it comes to their own kids.
Most mom-tastic lyric:
Mother’s right here/ Mother will protect you/ Darling, here’s what I suggest/ Skip the drama/ Stay with mama/ Mother knows best
26. Mama I’m Comin’ Home, Ozzy Osbourne

Yeah, yeah, we know Ozzy sang this to wife Sharon and not his actual mother, but it still speaks straight to the fact that moms, no matter how we feel about them, are people we just can’t leave behind.
Most mom-tastic lyric:
I’ve seen your face a hundred times/ Everyday we’ve been apart/ I don’t care about the sunshine yeah/ ‘Cause mama, mama I’m comin’ home
More:My 7-year-old belonged in the delivery room watching her sister’s birth
25. Guess Who (My Momma), Goodie Mob

Arguably one of the most aggressive tracks on this list, there’s still no denying that Goodie Mob’s ode to the moms who do a lot with a little is touching and absolutely true.
Most mom-tastic lyric:
The Lord had to help her raise me judging from the way I used to be/ My Momma, the biggest player that I know/ I love her so/ Hell everything I got I owe to my Moma
