All the little pretty girls start out looking like each other Trying to find peace of mind, now you think you need a lover No time, you'll find, never worry about each other In a minute, in a minute, wanna be somebody's mother Oh, no All these little pretty boys with their toys blowing bubbles Find a girl you can twirl and never minding any troubles In a while, with a smile, it will all turn into rubble In a minute, in a minute, you can give without a struggle Oh, no
Try to remember sometimes That you're skin and bone Make it harder on ourselves Than it needs to be And I can't remember the last time That changed anything It's always been life or death to me That's how it needs to be It's overwhelming sometimes When you're all alone And you can't tell if you're floating Or falling out of place Like the astronaut calls a little dot a home Like he can tell from outer space Try to remember sometimes this is how it all proceeds(And all these girls look like each other) And as you go, you see it differenly than you used to see(It starts by being someone's lover) And all you can do is try to reconcile the ways you help me feel(No longer astronauts, philosophers, or movie stars) With all the things you know you need(They all will end up being someone's mother, oh, no) Do well to remember sometimes that you're skin and bone(And all these boys they're blowing bubbles) Make it harder on ourselves than it needs to be(They want a girl to give them trouble) And I can't remember the last time that it changed anything at all(And all their dreams of flying out to space will blow away) It's always been life or death to me, that's how it ought to be(Just smile and watch it go to rubble, oh, no) And all these girls, they will be mothers It starts by being someone's lover
