Beautiful Baby
(Markus Rill/Andy Fite)

I woke up this morning at a quarter to three
before the rooster crows, my little baby screams
a bottle of milk is what she needs
and she makes it known even though she can't speak
oohwee, I can see, this time it's up to me

I haven't had a rest in the past few weeks
if I could take a nap I know I'd dream of sleep
my wife, she's got it even worse than me
after all, most the time it's up to her to feed
our girl, the little one who's running our whole world

She’s so cuddly & so cute
not a care in the world, not a whole lot of things to do
take a bite, take a nap, take a pee and take a poo
wreak a little havoc, cause a little destruction, too
she must be out to drive us crazy
the whole wide globe's most beautiful baby

Now she's learning to crawl and now it really starts
she knows to find things, hide things, tear stuff apart
where's my wallet, where's my glasses, my car key ring?
none of these things is where they've just been
oohwee, I can see the baby's wicked grin

So if you're thinking about kids, man, you better think twice
I don't know much but here's some advice
it's never too late to protet yourself
put all your fragile things on the highest shelf
ohoh, it'll save you some dough and your mental health

She’s so cuddly & so cute
not a care in the world, not a whole lot of things to do
wreck your house, wreck your car, disrupt your sex life, too
be a natural wonder to no one else but you
she must be out to drive us crazy
she's the whole wide globe's most beautiful baby
