You make a choice   It's such an easy move   Nobody disapproves      You come unprepared   But to interrupt   Would surely be uncouth      And when your time comes 'round   And he's nowhere to be found   You wait for colour red      And when the ring you get   Is not the one you want   Then you begin to plot somebody's death   Thinking      Oh, your pretty baby won't know   Oh, Your pretty babe      Maybe another time   And another place   A boy or girl could grow      But now you just can't wait   You just can't wait   To let it go      You couldn't bear this thing   To save your life   Suppose you start to show      So you call the doctor   But who's gonna nurse away   The little voice inside when it cries   You'll curse this day
