Don't Forget
hey mom
i think there's something missing somethings wrong
hold on
the diaper bag looks different somethings wrong
hold on
hey mom
did you bring the diapers and wipeys powder and cream
a change of clothes for both you and me
the padded mat for exercising
and the little blue crab so appetizing
the little bear yeah the one from the bed
no not the blue i prefer the red
monkey that bounces up and down
but toss the one with the squeaky sound
don't forget it
don't forget it
don't forget it
so don't rush out of the house this time
you're gonna pay in stress what you saved in time
hey mom
that's not going to get you very far
aw mom
you're gonna need a much much bigger car
aw come on
hey mom
the bibs and blankets bottles and boos
and that little strappy thing so you know i won't loose it
the fake cell phone that even rings
and that ice ice ice cold teething thing
an assortment of hats in case i get cold
the video that never gets old
wait there's probably so much more
just for a quick trip to the store
hey mom
i see it in your face there's something wrong
aw mom
the house a little cluttered aw con
the good stroller right by the front door
the car seat over there on the floor
the bouncer left blocking half the hall
right next to the fuzzy orange basketball
this obstacle course what a lovely sight
is difficult to navigate in the night
i heard a crash i heard a shout
then i heard a bunch of words that i couldn't make out
