Baby, I was born to be needed
Baby, I was born to be needed
I always resisted
Conventions like mister and missus
But I’d do it, do it, do it again
Do it, do it, do it again
Immune to biology
It’s a lonely road to autonomy
But I would do it, do it, do it again
Do it, do it, do it again
Why should I deny myself?
Never really cared about my health
The simple kind of life
Cuts through me like a sharpened knife
Baby, I was born to be needed
Baby, I was born to be needed
Motherhood might do me good
At least that’s been the word around the neighborhood
We’re born into it, to it, to it again
Do it, do it, do it again
I know it’s an old refrain
But the need hit me like a hurricane
I'd fall into it, to it, to it again
Do it, do it, do it again
Why should I deny myself?
Never really cared about my health
The simple kind of life
Cuts through me like a sharpened knife
Ooh oh
Ooh oh
Ooh
Baby, I was born to be needed
If my heart can’t take it, then maybe
I will give right into the feeling
Baby, I was born to be needed
If my heart can’t take it, then maybe
I will give right into the feeling
