SHE KEEPS ME AWAKE, TILL WAY PAST ELEVEN,
BUT SHE'S THE REASON I GET UP, JUST BEFORE SEVEN.
SHE USES HER VOICE, TO TRY AND LIGHTEN,
EVEN THE DARKEST DAYS, SHE CAN BRIGHTEN.

SHE'S MY CLINGY BABY, AND I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT,
THOU SOMETIMES SHE GETS MAD, WITH I DON'T KNOW WHAT.
SHE'S MY CLINGY BABY, THERE'S NO PROBLEM WITH THAT,
SHE MAKES ME FALL ASLEEP, SMILING LIKE A BRAT.

AND WHEN ALL ELSE FAILS, HER SMILE IS MY SAFE PLACE.
AND HER LAUGHTER IS LIKE, HEAVEN TO MY EARS.
THERE'S A FEW THINGS IN THIS WORLD THAT I FEAR,
THAT MY BABY FORGETS, MY NAME IN A MAZE.

SHE CHECKS ON ME, HAVE I ATE OR HAVE I NOT.
SHE SINGS TO ME, KEEPS TELLING ME SHE'S FAT.
SAYS SHE'S OUT OF TUNE, I TELL HER SHE'S NOT.
SHE MAKES MY HEART BEAT, DANCING LIKE A RAT.

SHE'S MY CLINGY BABY, AND I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT,
THOU SOMETIMES SHE GETS MAD WITH I DON'T KNOW WHAT.
SHE'S MY CLINGY BABY, THERE'S NO PROBLEM WITH THAT,
SHE MAKES ME FALL ASLEEP, SMILING LIKE A BRAT.
