Dishwalla - Pretty Babies Lyrics

Everything about the world is sex
And it's 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
Oh, how they're not ready
Oh, our pretty babies
Oh, how they're not ready"

Just down the street in beautiful...
There is tension for a popular child
And it doesn't get much worse than that
In little beds in little rooms
Are the lost things, are the silver spoons

Why the need?
Can't you see all the damage that it's doing?

"Oh, our pretty babies
Oh, how they're not ready
Oh, our pretty babies
Oh, how they're 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 they're not ready
Oh, our pretty babies
Oh, how they're not ready"
