I really cannot wait until it's home time
Cause I'm so sick of gettin' no time to lie
Soon as I arrive I wish I could be leavin', know you think so too
Ev'ry time another kid stops kindly sleepin' and escapes, makes me fume

Man, they're not really walkin' yet, should not be hard to mind
Yet they somehow cross the floor in just the bare blink of an eye
Why must babies crawl free all the time?
Why, why must babies crawl free all the time?

Gettin' farther, too far out of my sight
And gettin' harder (ha-ah) to bring them back each time
They're smarter and smarter, know just how to wriggle, they don't want to be here
In that one case, I'm sharin' in their opinion, still might go nuts, I fear

Though they're not really walkin' yet, it's pretty hard to mind
Cause they zoom across the floor once you turn your head to the side (head's turned to the side)
Why must babies crawl free all the time (why must babies crawl free all the)?
Why, why must babies crawl free all the time?

No danger for them here, we keep things locked tight
But I still feel like I'm gonna lose my mind
I can't sit down for any amount of time
Because another adventurous toddler gets bored of drool and takes flight
Can't they be like me and be lazy? Why must babies crawl free all the time?

Why must all these babies crawl free all the time?
Why must all these babies crawl free all the time?
Why must all these babies crawl free all the time?
