Yeah, No
when they …
wheel ‘ya out
with your bundle
and ‘ya go forth
all careful-like
and super slow
over every bump
and dip
in the road
and then
you’re home
and it begins …
your new life
… this new life
that grows inside of you
and then outside of you
turning the burrito blankey
into a cape
the baby flies
down the hall
and the clock falls
off the wall
and you get stuck
on the seconds
the minutes
the hours
but time keeps
turning over
and over
and over
and you panic
and try to buy up
all the watches
all the clocks
but it’s too late
you’re too late
and you can see
the sequin cape
sparkling out the driver’s-side-window
as it flaps outta sight
all carefree-like
hitting every bump
and dip
in the road
boom booming
further and further
away from home
and it begins …
your new life
… this new life
that grows inside of you
and then outside of you
turning the burrito blankey
into a cape
