I wanna be somebody's baby 
I don't want a child of my own 
I was the one who was always strong 
And I was always the one left alone 
I was the one understandin' 
And lettin' the other go free 
Now I wanna be somebody's baby 
Let somebody worry 'bout me 

Who,no, no, no more a shoulder to cry on 
My shoulders are wet to the bone 
No, no, no more a friend to rely on 
I'm looking for friends of my own 
No more a kindly adviser 
And no more a worshiping fan 
I'm younger and weaker and wiser 
With a brand new strategy planned 

I wanna be somebody's baby 
I don't want a child of my own 
Who, I was the one who was always strong 
And I was always the one left alone 
I was the one understandin' 
And lettin' the other go free 
Right now I wanna be somebody's baby 
Let somebody worry 'bout me 

I wanna be mothered and fathered 
And sistered and bothered 
It's gonna be gruesome and grand 
I swear I'll keep you worried and sweatin' 
And busy and bothered 
You'll run around wringin' your hands 

I'll call you at three in the mornin' 
Wailin' my woes to the sky 
I'll slip out of sight without warnin' 
And return with a gleam in my eye 

I wanna be somebody's baby 
I don't want a child of my own 
Who, I was the one who was always strong 
And I was always the one left alone 
I was the one understandin' 
And lettin' the other go free 
Right now I wanna be somebody's baby 
Let somebody worry 'bout me
