Be careful, there's a baby in the house
And a baby will not be fooled
It's a thing brand new, does what it wants to
Until you get it schooled

Be careful, there's a baby in the house
And a baby will play it for real
If your "I love you" is an IOU
Don't expect to get a good deal

So, look out mama, look out dad
Your bundle of joy will not be had
If the blanket is blue or if the blanket is pink
You'd best watch what you do, you'd best watch what you think

Be careful, there's a baby in the house
And a baby can spot your schtick
All the coochy-coochy-coo
Is a lot of poo-poo when you spread it on that thick

Be careful, there's a baby in the house
And a baby is better than smart
It can waddle through all the stuff you do
Never mind your big head start

Be careful, there's a baby in the house
