Get up and leave the baby
You're going to drive him crazy
And there's a bed just in the other room
He has a task before him
Before this he needs snoring
Sweet solitude for ages at a time

It's not that he don't love you
You are his mommy dearest
But in the nightime he only needs himself
Go entertain the neighbors
Leave him to cogitate
And in the morning you'll leave a glass of milk

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh.....

Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh.....

It's not that he don't love you
You are his mommy dearest
But in the nightime he only needs himself
Go entertain the neighbors
Leave him to cogitate
And in the morning you'll leave a glass of milk
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh.....

It's not that he don't love you
You are his mommy dearest
But in the nightime he only needs himself
He only needs himself....

Oh, oh
