What can a baby do for you?
It cannot talk, that much is true
It can wriggle, it can scream
And smile at some deep, hidden dream
Every new parent wonders why
A baby's first word's just a cry
One day, I hope it's not too late
A baby will communicate
A robot will say if it's happy
Hot or cold, please change my nappy
I'm tired, I am about to die
I'm cross - but have no idea why
I want to sleep
Please go away
I'd like a hug
But not today
I know you
I've seen you before
I like to throw things
On the floor
I like this milk
Now give me more
I do not like this lullaby
I love Mum but do not know why
I like Mum and I like Dad
I like Babygrows and mittens
I like milk and I like kittens
All in all, life isn't bad
I like lying on the floor
When I can walk I'll do much more
What is a spoon for, and a fork?
I can't wait to walk and talk!
