I wanna be somebody's baby I don't want a child of my own I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me
Who,no, no, no more a shoulder to cry on My shoulders are wet to the bone No, no, no more a friend to rely on I'm looking for friends of my own No more a kindly advisor And no more a worshipping fan I'm younger and weaker and wiser With a brand new strategy planned
I wanna be somebody's baby I don't want a child of my own Who, I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Right now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me
I wanna be mothered and fathered And sistered and brothered It's gonna be gruesome and grand I swear I'll keep you worried and sweatin' And busy and bothered You'll run around wringin' your hands
I'll call you at three in the mornin' Wailin' my woes to the sky I'll slip out of sight without warnin' And return with a gleam in my eye
I wanna be somebody's baby I don't want a child of my own Who, I was the one who was always strong And I was always the one left alone I was the one understandin' And lettin' the other go free Right now I wanna be somebody's baby Let somebody worry 'bout me
