Babies Makin’ Babies lyrics

Two kids from Tacoma

In a '72 Nova

No pill and barely old enough to drink

Learned the ropes and tested science

Started pentecostal riots

In just five minutes behind the rolling rink

In the backseat brings

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love 'em till you're eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah, it's always in the water

Babies makin' babies

Between diplomas and the diapers

They become couch quarter finders

Savin' up for a Maytag microwave

Oh but all has been forgiven

On the day the water christen

The best thing that could have happened by mistake

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love 'em till you're eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah, it's always in the water

Babies makin' babies

Well, it's a tried and true equation

Maintains a small town population

That turns us all into a family

The American dream on a shoestring

First you grow it, then you show it

Give a good push just like a Brady

Say you'll love 'em till you're eighty

Too soon to be a mother and father

But too late for the alma mater

Yeah, it's always in the water

Babies makin' babies

Yes, it's always in the water

Babies makin babies
