Lyrics

It can be nice to play guitar in the daytime And scribble words down when everyone else is at work But I earn nothing much to give, and if we ever had a kid It'd be a little selfish not to stop Unless it's my job And there's some fool who wants to pay me Oh I hope that I make it before we have a baby

I hear their adorable little mouths they need feeding And their fragrant heads need somewhere to rest Another white guy needs attention for his feelings As if we'd ever need another one of those But it's all I know And there's always stacking shelves in Sainsbury's Oh I hope that I can make it before we have a baby

I'm told they turn out rather better if you put time in A little money makes the rougher days more smooth Anyone who seems content providing neither Well no smart parent would let em stay for long And you're as smart as they come Although you did end up with me Oh I hope that I can make it before we have a baby

We could wait a little longer til we feel ready Though how do you know you are until you try We never were that fussed about living lives of luxury And there's value in doing what you love But the truth is tough No one said it was easy to raise a family Maybe I won't care if I can make it What does it even mean to make it Still I hope that I can make it before we have a baby
