Careful with that baby
He is dangerous, I tell you,
You can wrap him
In swaddling
But you cant contain him
You can put him in a manger
But he wont be managed
You can bring him to the world in a stable
But your world may end up
Destabilised,
You can put him in your nativity
but he might run native
You can put him in your show
But he might not play
He wont take stage directions
Where you put him
He may not stay
He is just a baby
A baby, is what you say,
He may be just a baby,
But he wont stay that way.
