Pretty Babies Lyrics

Dishwalla

Everything about the world is sex
And its a message, of popular culture
Telling all our children how to do it right
And all through their innocence you may ask yourself why?
Why the need?
Why the need to eroticize our children?
Oh our pretty babies
How theyre ready
Oh our pretty babies
Oh how theyre not ready
Just down the street in beautiful
There is tension, for a popular child
And it doesnt get much worse than that
In little beds in little rooms
Are the lost things, are the silver spoons
Why the need?
Cant you see all the damage that its doing?
Oh our pretty babies
Oh how theyre ready
Oh our pretty babies
Oh how theyre not ready
And does it bother you to see her
Wrapped up?
Why the need?
And why the need to eroticize our children?
Oh our pretty babies
Oh how theyre ready
Oh our pretty babies
Oh how theyre not ready
