Talking Heads - Stay Up Late Lyrics

Mommy had. A little baby
There he is. Fast asleep
He's just. A little plaything
Why not. Wake him up?
Cute. Cute. Little baby
Little pee pee. Little toes
Now he's comin' to me
Crawl across. The kitchen floor

Baby, baby, please let me hold him
I want to make him stay up all night
Sister, sister, he's just a plaything
We want to make him stay up all night
Yeah we do

See him drink. From a bottle
See him eat. From a plate
Cute. Cute. As a button
Don't you want to make him. Stay up late
And we're having fun. With no money
Little smile. On his face
Don't cha' love. The little baby
Don't you want to make him. Stay up late

[Chorus:]

Here we go (all night long)
Sister, sister (all night long)
In the playpen...woo...(all night long)
Little baby goes, ha! (all night long)
I know you want to leave me...

Why don't. We pretend
There you go. Little man
Cute. Cute. Why not?
Late at night. Wake him up

[Chorus:]

Here we go (all night long)
Sister, sister...woo...
(with the television on)
Little baby goes...woo! (all night long)
Hey, hey, baby! (all night long)
And he looks so cute (all night long)
In his little red suit (all night long)
