Broadway production (2014) If/Then the Musical - Hey Kid Lyrics
(performs James Snyder - Hey Kid Lyrics If/Then)
Hey, kid Everyone's waiting on you, kid Everyone's wondering what you'll do, kid It's true, kid Me too, kid
Hey, kid We're so excited to know you'll soon be here Say, kid We're both delighted, though that may not seem so clear
But I did my OB rotation, so I know the ins and outs And you're an act of God's creation, so I'm fine with all the doubts I'm a doctor and a soldier I've been shelled and under fire But, kid, if I say that you don't scare me, I'm a liar
Now, kid You did surprise me though I know the facts of life Wow, kid It terrifies me just to say, 'my pregnant wife'
'Cos kid, I gotta tell ya I'm not ready, not a bit There's this macho act I'll sell ya While inside I lose my shit
It's not that I don't want you 'Cos I do, despite my fears But, kid Is it true you'll stick around for 18 years?
Then the call comes on the iPhone I grab a cab 'cross town I find her on the fourth floor And they've got her in the gown
She's never looked less lovely She's a grump and she's got gas And the labor's eighteen hours Oh my God, kid, move your ass!
Then at last you make your entrance And well, kid, you're quite a sight I'll be honest, you're disgusting But I know that you're alright
Though you're screaming and you're spitting And I can't quite see your charms They clean you and they clothe you And they put you in my arms
And I realize in an instant That I've known you all along That I've wanted you forever That I'll never do you wrong
And whatever this world comes to And whatever comes our way I will watch you and protect you I promise, kid, we'll be okay We'll be okay We'll be okay, kid
I feel like yelling, ring the bell and bang the drums Say, kid There's just no telling all the things that you'll become
And I think we'll have some fun here Your mom and you and me Before your time is done here Kid of mine, I hope you'll see
That this life is what you make it It's cliche, which means it's true And, kid It makes my life to know I helped make you
As a father, kid, I may not have a clue But your mom and me will somehow muddle through If my asshole dad could do it, I can too In fact, I'll do better, I'll start new 'Cos, kid, my kid, our kid I love you
