When My Baby Comes

Thank God we don't get all our hurts at once
 That would be a really bad thing
 When my baby comes
 Thank God we don't get all our olds at one time
 (Listen to me talking in my hospital gown!)
 When my baby comes
 Best thing about this place are the showers
 Worst thing is the visiting hours
 (Hey, careful of the carpet!)
 When my baby comes
 They had pistols and they had guns
 They threw me on the ground as they entered into me
 (I was only fifteen!)
 When my baby comes
 Just how long you gonna be, my baby?
 Until you come?
 She got hands as white as milk
 And weaves a web of spider's silk that glistens
 When my baby comes
 There is an ancient question behind her eyes
 That I can't even begin to describe
 (Hey, don't do that on the carpet!)
 When my baby comes
 Is there anyone out there wasted their lives?
 On booze drugs husbands wives and making money?
 When my baby comes
 They had pistols and they had guns
 My skirt above my head I was so much older
 When I crawled out from their mushroom cloud
 Just how long you gonna be, my baby?
 Until you come?
 When she come?
 When she come?
