Sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we gonna throw them dice
I know that it's crazy, a baby's a baby
There's a million born every day
But here we are stallin' when nature is callin'
Checkin' our emotional state
Oh, will we have the patience to give?
Will we have the clearness of mind?
Sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we gonna throw them dice
Remember your mama, oh, she was a trauma
How she used to get so upset
Remember your papa, so uptight and proper
There's so much now that he must regret
Ooh, they tried to teach you their truth
But you couldn't feel it inside
Sweet navel lightning, it's so damn frightening
So real, so wonderful, so nice
Sweet navel lightning, the world is widening
Come on now, mama, we gonna throw them dice
How will we reach him? What will we teach him?
There's so much we don't comprehend
Will we grow colder as he gets older
Or will our spirits meet in the end?
