|
Tonight was just great, she taught us the sign for peace |
|
Now she's made us some popcorn |
|
We've turned out the lights and we're watching movies |
|
I don't understand and she tries to explain |
|
How a spaceship is riding through somebody's brain |
|
And there's blood and guts and |
|
She's the best one that we've ever had |
|
She sits on her hair and she's tall as my dad |
|
And she tie dyed my shirt and she pierced her own ear |
|
And it's peace, man, cool, yeah, the babysitter's here |
|
Her boyfriend is |
|
Tom, but we call him the |
|
King of Romance |
|
He wears an |
|
American flag on the butt of his ripped up pants |
|
And will they get married with kids of their own? |
|
He says, "Not if she's going to college, we won't" and he kisses her, oh |
|
Someday I'll have a boyfriend just like that |
|
She's the best one that we've ever had |
|
She sits on her hair and she's tall as my dad |
|
And she got mad at dinner when |
|
Tom drank a beer |
|
But peace, man, cool, hey, the babysitter's here |
|
And we all went to see her go dance at the high school |
|
We made her a big card and she told us that she'd be the unicorn |
|
Wearing the pink leotard and there she was leaping up just like she said |
|
With the sparkling horn coming out of her head |
|
And she's oh, oh, oh, oh, |
|
I can't wait to give her the card |
|
I can't wait to give her the card, she's the best one |
|
Okay, so the play was called "The Unicorn" |
|
And she was the |
|
Unicorn so that means |
|
That the star was my babysitter |
|
But it's Saturday night |
|
I can't sleep and we're watching the news |
|
She says,"Do me a favor, don't go with a guy who would make you choose" |
|
And I don't understand and she tries to explain |
|
And all that mascara runs down in her pain' |
|
Cause she's leaving me, oh |
|
You're the best one that we've ever had |
|
You sit on your hair and you're tall as my dad |
|
And I'll make you a picture for college next year |
|
So hush, now, peace, man, the babysitter's here |
|
The best babysitter's here |
