Baby, I was born to be needed Baby, I was born to be needed I always resisted convictions and mister, misses But I'd do it, do it, do it again Do it, do it, do it again Immune to biology It's a lonely road to autonomy But I would do it, do it, do it again Do it, do it, do it again Why should I deny myself? Never really cared about my health The simple kind of life Cuts through me like a sharpened knife Baby, I was born to be needed Baby, I was born to be needed Mother heard, might do me good At least that's been the word around the neighbourhood We're gonna do it, do it, do it again Do it, do it, do it again I know it's an old refrain But the need hit me like a hurricane I fall into it, do it, do it again Do it, do it, do it again Why should I deny myself? Never really cared about my health The simple kind of life Cuts through me like a sharpened knife Baby, I was born to be needed If my heart can't take it, then maybe I will give right into the feeling Baby, I was born to be needed If my heart can't take it, then maybe I will give right into the feeling
