Perfect Mother - Basia

She’s gonna be a perfect mother, perfect mother

In her mind there’s no doubt

Though no one could show her how

To be a perfect mother, perfect mother

People say--she's too young

Should a child have a child?

Hers is gonna be a perfect baby

Raised according to the old prescription:

Cuddle it daily and smother with kisses

'cause there’s nothing more important

Just make sure that she never misses

A perfect mother, perfect mother

People say--she's too young

No one could ever show her how

Babies grow, then they tend to leave us

That’s how it’s always been and always will be

Deep down inside you never stop wishing

For the hope to be certain

That your boy or girl will be forever needing you

Hers is gonna be a perfect baby

Raised according to the old prescription:

Cuddle it daily and smother with kisses

'cause there’s nothing more important…

Who knows better-- all her life she missed her
