My Kid
©2006 Garrett Clevenger

E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4     
Sperm is swimmin’ with the mission to reach the egg.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      Fightin’ and racin’ with each other as the legions make their way.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      Random molecules somehow came together formin’ DNA
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      They’ve become a livin’ cell that one day will breath the same air as me.
A     B7                             If that’s not smart nothin’ will ever be.

E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      Evolution really ain’t that strange
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      compared to religion, it actually explains change.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      It’s quite intelligent how creation evolves
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      from a single cell organism to a human whose life I will revolve.
A     B7                             Without love I wouldn't be involved.

Chorus:
B7     A     E
          My kid, I don’t know what I got myself into.
B7     A     E            I did choose to be a dad.
B7     A     B    A     I know how glad I will really be when I realize how
B7     E                    rad it will be.

E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      The embryo is growin’ as the fetus feeds on mom.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      A cute, little parasitic bugger but the free lunch won’t last long.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      Meantime we’re waitin’ patiently enjoyin’ our freedom while it lasts.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      ’cause biological directives have changed our past forecast.
A     B7                             The prime command will always be steadfast.

E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      When Tab’s belly’s full and just about to pop our live’s will reach another stage.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      When the baby finally pops its head out we know our kid will be above average
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      despite all the poop and dirty diapers and sleepless nights and broken curfew rules.
E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4      One day I hope the little bugger won’t play me for a fool
A     B7                             and they’ll teach evolution in their school.

{chorus}

E  Esus4  E  A  B7 x4     
My kid is rad.
