Ode to the Womb
Oh to be in the womb again
Life it was so simple then
Just sleeping and eating and sleeping again
Amniotic fluid was my best friend
The umbilical cord was another friend
Always had food which he would lend
And what's more each and every day
He carried all my waste away
The night was dark, and so was day
It was a nice, warm place to stay
I could go for a swim or just hang around
Because that life-sustaining fluid did abound
But as time went by and as I grew
The time would come, and soon, I knew
When I would have to relocate
And this was no cause to celebrate
Then came the day and I did fight
To keep my home, with all my might
But it's hard to win when you're not too stout
And your landlady just wants to get you out
And since that day I have not found
No matter how much I look around
A place with half as good a room
As my safe and cozy rent-free womb!
