EmDCAm Mommy, I've got a question. Mommy, I wanna know. EmD Where do babies come from? Do they come from rainbows and love? CAm Mommy Mommy tell me please, I wanna know really.
[Chorus]
Em They come from boys who like to sit on their ass D They come from girls who want to grow up too fast C They come from screaming, fighting, make up sex Am They come from little girls like yourself
EmDCAm
[Verse 2]
EmD Daddy, where do little babies come from? CAm Daddy tells me they come from the sky, but never explains when I ask why EmD Do they come from angels in love or do they come from demons and lust? CAm Daddy daddy tell me please, where do babies come from really?
[Chorus]
Em They come from boys who take things they don't own D They come from girls who beg to be left alone C They come from pleading, screaming no no no Am They're an accident from so long ago
EmDCAm
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
EmD What a lovely little mess I've made CAm I throw milk at the wall in rage EmDCAm I'm just trying to forget the pa-in (long note) (switch to just one normal down strum here) Em Mommy daddy, tell me please D Where do babies come from really?
[Chorus]
Em They come from boys who like to sit on their ass D They come from girls who want to grow up too fast C They come from screaming, fighting, make up sex Am They come from little girls like yourself Em They come from boys who take things they don't own D They come from girls who beg to be left alone C They come from pleading, screaming no no no Am They're an accident from so long ago
(switch to one strum each chord) Em They come from boys who like to sit on their ass D They come from girls who want to grow up too fast C They come from screaming, fighting, make up sex Am They come from little girls like yourself Em They come from boys D They come from girls C Pleading, screaming, no no no Am An accident from so long ago
