Tracey Thorn
Babies
[Verse 1]
Every morning of the month
You push a little tablet through the foil
Cleverest of all inventions
Better than a condom or a coil

[Chorus]
'Cause I didn't want my babies
Until I wanted babies
And when I wanted babies
Nothing else would do but babies
Babies, babies

[Verse 2]
Every touch was terrifying
All my knowledge from Cathy and Claire
Anxious waiting, diary watching
Just because a boy had touched me there

[Chorus]
'Cause I didn't want my babies
Until I wanted babies
And when I wanted babies
Nothing else would do but babies
Babies, babies
[Bridge]
Go to sleep, it's 3 am
Where are you, it's 3 am
In a cab at 3 am
Don't wait up, it's 3 am
The memory of 3 am
Feeding you at 3 am
Rocking chair at 3 am
Go to sleep it's 3 am

[Verse 3]
Please, please
Lay your pretty hair down (Please)
Get the fuck to bed now (Please)
All the nights I paced the floor (Please)
Made me love you even more (Please)
Made me love you even more

[Outro]
And oh, I love my babies
Oh, I love my babies
Oh, I love my babies
