If I had a baby   She would grow up strange and sad   She would execrate her dad   If I had a baby   She would hang herself at one   Drink herself to death at dawn   She would be put away      So why must I explain myself   I can't do it I can't even try   And you need a reason to see it through   You don't need a reason not to      If I had a baby   She would ask "What made you think   You knew how to make anything?"   And in the ether   There's a soul without a form   Somewhere safer and unborn   That tells me "Thanks for thinking twice."
