Your mother is a journalist, your father is a creep
They make it in your bedroom when they think you re fast asleep
The scenes that they re enacting now beside your little bed
Are never in your consciousness but always in your head
Ba--by
It might sound dodgy now
But it sounds great when you re dead
It sounds great when you re
Your sister is a butterfly, your brother is a drunk
You gaze at him reclining in formaldehyde a trunk
He lives and breathes on systems that nobody can supply
And you re immune to everything except the butterfly
Yeah
Baby
It might sound dodgy now
But it sounds great when you re dead
It sounds great when you re dead
Bridge:
Baby, you re incredible, I think that you re the most
I ve searched around for everything like you from coast to coast
Your name engraved in diamonds written in my heart
We re at our most together when we re at our most apart
Baby
It might sound dodgy now
But it sounds great when you re dead
Ba--by
It might sound dodgy now
But ba--by let me assure you
It sounds great when you re dead
