[Verse 1]
Hush little baby don't say a word
Not that you could, you can't speak yet
I'm not gonna buy you a ring or a bird
'Cause those aren't safe gifts for a baby to get
I'm further along on this journey, it's true
So in theory that means I'm wiser
Here's what life likely has in store for you
Sung sweetly as a tranquillizer
[Verse 2]
You'll never buy the right number of bananas
You'll run out or some will go brown
But that's okay
You'll always feel like a kid, not a grown-up
Like when you buy a car or suit or gown
But that's okay
[Chorus 1]
You'll date someone sexy but not smart
You'll date someone funny but not hot
No matter how successful you are
You will fear you're a fraud about to get caught
Hush little baby don't say a word
Not that you could, you can't speak yet
I'm not gonna buy you a ring or a bird
'Cause those aren't safe gifts for a baby to get
I'm further along on this journey, it's true
So in theory that means I'm wiser
Here's what life likely has in store for you
Sung sweetly as a tranquillizer
[Verse 2]
You'll never buy the right number of bananas
You'll run out or some will go brown
But that's okay
You'll always feel like a kid, not a grown-up
Like when you buy a car or suit or gown
But that's okay
[Chorus 1]
You'll date someone sexy but not smart
You'll date someone funny but not hot
No matter how successful you are
You will fear you're a fraud about to get caught
