so this is life

so this is life
shoulda seen it coming
nine months inside
and here i am
so this is life
so bright and noisy
could use some milk
if you don't mind, m'am

here comes the knife
to free me from you
so this is life
whoop-dee-doo

so this is life
I should have known
two years of mumbling
sixteen to grow
cross the courtyard
here i am
could use some love
if you don't mind, m'am

soon she's a wife
and lives with me
so this is life
yippee

and then one day
look what she found
under her shirt
kicking around

so this is life
shoulda seen it coming
nine months inside
and here he is
so this is life
so small and stunning
those arms are mine
these tears are his
