lyrics

I still write letters to my baby
he was swallowed whole a year ago
I still write letters to my baby
but he seems to prefer his new home

what's a girl like me to do?
how can I compete
with the scales and the long tail and
twice as many feet?
I guess I'm not the kind of fun
that he pictured he could have
no, my blood's not cold enough
I did not stand a chance
he's been gone a while
inside a crocodile, oh no

ditched his name, doesn't pay his taxes
I search night and day while he relaxes
he ran away, wanted to feel free
free from his responsibility

people say it's just a phase
that he'll come back to me
if I mean something to him
I guess that we shall see

people say it all the time
this is the way it's meant to be
have I commited some crime?
is he avoiding me?
hope he's having fun
inside that reptilian

I still write letters to my baby
tell me could I have done more?
I still write letters to my baby but they
get pushed back under my door

I guess he needs a different kind of girl
one with a dinosaur brain
who could not care less about him
so he can do the same

I guess he's made his scaly bed
I guess he's having a good time
while I lie awake in dread
all these questions on my mind
did he find that missing piece
inside the belly of a beast?
oh, ouch

I still write, I still write, letters to my baby
I still fight, I still fight, I fight for my baby
