[C] [F] Look at [Eb] this crib!
In all of its glorious antiquery,
Every [Ab] curve and surface speaks to me,
[Db] Saying,
Pamper and spoil me,
Sand me, [Eb] annoy me, come on!
I know to the untrained eye it's boring,
But nothing's a chore when you're restoring,
[Ab] Apart from frustration, pain, and financial brain.
[Cm] It's fun!
[Eb] Folks, say, Adam,
[Gm] Why do you polish a crib when you don't have a kid,
And even if you did have a [Fm] kid,
This crib is too precious for placing a baby inside it,
So it simply exists to [Ab] remind you,
Your sense of perfection is just a [Bb] reflection,
That you are not mentally prepared to [Cm] make room for a kid!
Adam,
[Eb] Why don't you live?
Adam,
Just [A] make a start!
[F] Are you willing to take [Bb] the next step?
Ready, set,
Ready, [A] set,
Look at [D] these jugs!
Amazingly glazed and terracottery,
I [G] took some clay and made you pottery,
The world will never wreck you,
I'll protect you in a [Bm] mother's embrace!
Folks, say, [Gbm] Barbara,
Why can't you see that ceramics is simply a manifestation of [E] motherly panic?
By making a baby that's breakable,
Aren't you creating a way of [G] translating the terror of making maternal mistakes into clay?
Hiding a waste on [Bm] your face, being a bad mom!
[D] That's what you've done!
Barbara,
[Ab] Just make a start!
[B] Are you willing to [G] take the next step?
Ready, [A] set,
Here we stand,
At the [Gbm] end of a ten-year plan,
[D] A house, a yard, a [A] minivan,
A baby should be next!
Together, let's leap off the cliff,
Fall [B] forever, then smash to bits,
[D] Trapped in a terrifying piper pit,
Of diapers and regret!
[Bm] Are we willing to take the next step?
[E] Ready, set,
[Gb] Not yet,
[Ebm] Why [B] rush?
Soon enough, our [Gb] hopes and our dreams will be crushed,
[G] But not yet,
Not [C] now,
[Eb] Oh, [D] no!
You see, we can't start a family in a house with creaky floorboards!
You are absolutely right!
Let's add it to the [Am] list with cracks and [G] plaster!
The wife-hiking'd be [Em] faster,
This sofa needs a [D] caster!
The bathroom's a [G] disaster!
What about global poverty?
What about world peace?
Then there's the whole darn economy!
The whole Middle East!
[Bb] We should learn Mandarin!
Yeah, or Spanish at least!
No habla Español!
[Eb] No cerveza, por [C] favor!
And [F] that's all we've got,
And that's not a lot,
Do we [Eb] want a bilingual household [C] or not?
So let's go, so no,
Break it a sweat,
[Gm] What's the point of having children if we're coming in debt?
[Dm] Yeah, we're clean, completely!
[Gb] Maybe 80%,
[Ab] I'd say 78!
We're ready to take [Bb] the next step!
Yeah, [Ab] yeah, yeah, yeah!
The next step!
Shoo-ba [Ab]-dee-dee-dee-ba-pow!
[Bb] The next step!
Swee-bee-bee-bee-bee-bee-bee!
[Eb] The next step!
We're ready, [N] set, let's go!
[Gb] See, I wasn't kidding, it's a show about [Bb] death!
In all of its glorious antiquery,
Every [Ab] curve and surface speaks to me,
[Db] Saying,
Pamper and spoil me,
Sand me, [Eb] annoy me, come on!
