BARENAKED LADIES lyrics : "Baby Seat"


You left Billy with the kid
And all the selfless things you did with Billy

You left your home town in the spring
And turned your back on everything
You thought your life would just go by

Without a pause to wonder, don't be silly

But you can't live your life in the baby seat

You've got to stand on your own
Don't admit defeat


He came down from his retreat
She saw him later on the street
He said "You are the only one

to recognize that I'm the son"
So she bent down and kissed his feet
And then that night, between the sheets she told him


You can't live your life in the baby seat
You've got to stand on your own

Don't admit defeat
You can't live your life in the baby seat
You've got to stand on your own

Don't admit defeat

40 days at sea

Then she turned and said to me
"If we make it back
I'll renounce Jack Kerouac

And all that romantic crap
Like I'm an artist don't look back"


Now we're living somewhere else
We keep opinions to ourselves
But still we seek a sneaky peek at heaven

When the working week defeats us
If you think growing up is tough
Then you've just not grown enough, baby


You can't live your life in the baby seat
You've got to stand on your own

Don't admit defeat
You can't live your life in the baby seat
You've got to stand on your own

Don't admit defeat
