I want to be somebody's baby
|
I don't want a child of my own
|
I was the one who was always strong
|
And I was always the one left alone
|
I was the one understanding
|
And letting the other go free
|
Now I want to be somebody's baby
|
Let somebody worry 'bout me
|
|
No,no,no more a shoulder to cry on
|
My shoulders are wet to the bone
|
No,no,no a more a friend to rely on
|
I'm lookin' for friends of my own
|
No more a kindly advisor
|
And no more a worshipping fan
|
I'm younger and weaker and wiser
|
With a brand new strategy planned
|
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
I don't want a child of my own
|
I was the one who was always strong
|
And I was always the one left alone
|
I was the one understanding
|
And lettin the other go free
|
Right now I want to be somebodys baby
|
Let somebody worry 'bout me
|
|
I want to be mothered
|
And fathered
|
And sistered
|
And brothered
|
Its gonna be gruesome and grand
|
I swear I'll keep you worried
|
And sweatin'
|
And busy
|
And bothered
|
You'll run around wringing your hand
|
I'll call you at three in the mornin'
|
Wailin' my woes to the sky
|
I'll slip out of sight without warnin
|
And return with a gleam in my eye
|
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
I don't want a child of my own
|
I was the one who was always strong
|
And I was always the one left alone
|
I was the one understanding
|
And lettin' the other go free
|
Right now
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
Let somebody worry 'bout me
|
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
I wanna,I wanna,I wanna,I wanna yeaaaaaaaa
|
Keep my bed warm
|
Make me a home
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
Give me some strolin
|
Keep my life smoken
|
I wanna,I wanna,I wanna
|
I wanna be somebody's baby
|
|
