JUST LIKE A BABY

Nobody eats any cheese
Tonight my baby just eats peas
Everybody knows
Baby's got ten toes
But lately I see that he only has one nose
And Elmo is his favorite toy
He takes just like a baby, yes, he does
He breaks wind just like a baby, yes, he does
And he shakes rattles just like a baby,
But he makes pooh just like a little boy

Big Bird, he's my friend
Yes, I believe I'll visit him again
Nobody has to guess
Baby can't be dressed
Till all the yogurt has been wiped from off his chest
Though every time I do it he's annoyed
He takes just like a baby, yes, he does
He breaks wind just like a baby, yes, he does
And he shakes rattles just like a baby,
But he makes pooh just like a little boy

He was hungry from the first
And was born with a thirst
That we satisfied
And this lack of sleep hurts
But what's worse
Is the way he cried
Every day he cried
Let me say that--

He's just too cute
Yes, I believe it is my horn I toot
I'll say it once again
Some day when this all ends
I’ll remember that I knew you when
You laughed yourself to sleep each night with joy
You take just like a baby, yes, you do
You break wind just like a baby, yes, you do
And you shake rattles just like a baby,
But you make pooh just like a little boy
