Bottom Of The Barrel

baby’s looking good in this bar

here’s hoping you stay the way that you are

here at the bottom of the barrel

if you haven’t had kids so far

the way that they’ll be is the way that you are

here at the bottom of the barrel

when I lie awake at night

see the light down the hall way

it’s just a small way

alone in the belly

alone when you go

alone in the zone

is all you ever get to know

been traveling so far

by train and plane and phone in car

they’ve always made room so far

there at the bottom of the barrel

hearing you call one more time down the hall way

just a small way

everything’s going to be ok

even if it’s not ok

baby is a pattern of one

baby, nothing new here under the sun

nothing new here under the sun

but my baby is a pattern of one

a pattern of one

there’s nothing new here

here at the bottom of the barrel
