Lyrics

[00:00.00] Babies
[00:01.00] Artist: kinks
[00:02.00] Album: Phobia
[00:04.42]
[00:16.23] Babies being born every day
[00:18.07] In a world where there's so much to discover
[00:22.91] All the babies crying out from the womb
[00:25.36] Not much room, can I come out mother?
[00:29.84]
[00:30.39] Mama, can you hear me call?
[00:36.79] Don't drop me now
[00:40.12] 'Cos it's a long way to fall
[00:45.29] Mama, I can hear all the sounds
[00:50.81] Outside it's like a battleground
[00:54.38] And I'm afraid to fall down
[00:58.35] Into the great big nowhere
[01:03.54] Papa's had a skin full of beer
[01:06.98] Mama, don't let him into here
[01:09.50] Baby, baby
[01:15.43]
[01:16.43] Babies being born
[01:17.73] Different hormones and genes
[01:19.93] There's so many of us out there
[01:23.64] How was I conceived
[01:25.51] Was it love, was I meant
[01:27.17] Or was I just an accident
[01:29.10]
[01:30.77] Mama, what I sense from outside
[01:37.29] It's a world full of fear
[01:40.42] And there's nowhere to hide
[01:44.58] Mama, I feel safe between these walls
[01:51.91] And I'm so scared of heights
[01:55.80] And it's a long way to fall
[01:58.91] Into the great big nowhere
[02:05.54] Maybe Papa's getting pressure from his peers
[02:08.89] Are you straight, are you queer
[02:11.03] So he made me, baby
[02:13.34]
[02:18.33] Babies being born, some are rich, some are poor
[02:21.22] But they're innocent and unprepared
[02:24.99] Little girls and boys, didn't ask to be born
[02:28.14] But they're always popping out there
[02:31.81] falling into the great big nowhere
[02:42.28]
[02:42.44] Mama, I know that once upon a time
[02:45.38] You and Papa were rich
[02:47.32] When you were both in your prime
[02:49.08] Mama, now you got the pains
[02:50.85] And I know it's nearly time
[02:52.49] But I don't want to join the crowd
[02:54.24] I see standing in line
[02:57.67] Baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
[03:06.68]
[03:12.10] Babies being induced, no excuse, what's the use
[03:15.11] So they're always popping out there
[03:20.48] Babies didn't wanna be born, unequipped, running loose
[03:24.05] But they're innocent and unprepared
[03:27.91] Mama, now you are showing all the signs
[03:33.77] But is your world upside-down
[03:38.17] On its head just like mine
[03:42.20] Mama, now your ambition is mine
[03:47.25] Don't make me over-achieve too much in my time
[03:55.47] Oh Mama, please don't make me climb
[04:10.67] Mama .............
[04:24.14] baby, baby................
