[Intro 1]
[Eb][Bbm][Cm][Bb]

[Verse 1]
Look at this [Eb]crib
In all of its [Bbm]glorious antiquary
Every [Ab]curve and surface speaks to me
Saying [Db]pamper and spoil me
Sand me and [Bb]oil me
Come [Eb]on
I know to the [Cm]untrained eye it's boring
But nothing's a [Ab]chore when you're restoring
Apart from frus[Db]tration, pain, and financial drain

[Bridge 1]
It's fun
[Cm]Folks say, "Adam
[Gm]Why do you polish your crib
when you don't have a kid?
And even if you did have a kid
This [Fm]crib is too precious
for placing a baby inside it
So it simply exists to [Gm]remind you
Your [Ab]sense of perfection is just a reflection
That [Bb]you are not mentally prepared
to make room for a [Cm]kid
Adam, why don't you [Eb]live?
Adam, just make a [Cm]start"
Are you [F]willing to take the next step?
Ready, set
Ready, [A]set

[Verse 2]
Look at these [D]jugs
Amazingly [Am]glazed and terracotta-ery
I took some [G]clay and made you pottery
The [C]world will never wreck you

[Bridge 2]
I'll protect you in a mother's embrace
[Bm]Folks say, "Barbara
[F#m]Why can't you see that ceramics is simply
a manifestation of motherly panic
By [Em]making a baby that's breakable
Aren't you creating a way
of translating [F#m]the terror
of [G]making maternal mistakes into clay
[A]Hiding away so you don't have to face
being a bad [Bm]mom
Barbara, that's what you've [D]done
Barbara, just make a [Bm]start"
Are you [E]willing to take the next step?

[Chorus 1]
Ready, set
[A]Here we stand
At the end of a [F#m]ten- year plan
A [D]house, a yard
A minivan
A [A]baby should be next
Together let's leap off the cliff
Fall forever, then [B]smash to bits
Trapped in a [D]terrifying viper pit
Of diapers and regret
Are we [Bm]willing to take the next step?
[E]Ready, set
Ready, set

[Interlude 1]
Not yet
[F#]Not yet
Why [D#m]rush?
Why rush?
[B]Soon enough, our hopes
and our dreams will be [G#m]crushed
[C#]But not [G]yet
Not yet
Not [Em]now
Not [C]now[Bm]
[D]Oh?[Ebm] No![D]

[Verse 3]
See? We [D]can't start a family in a [C]house
with creaky floorboards
You are [F]absolutely right
Let's [D]add it to the list
With the [Am]cracks in the plaster
The [G]Wi-Fi should be faster
This [Em]sofa needs a castor
The [D]bathroom's a disaster
What a[C]bout global poverty?
What about world peace?
Then there's the [G]whole darn economy
The whole Middle East
We should [Gm]learn Mandarin
Yeah! Or Spanish at least
No [Ab]habla español
Dos cer[Eb]vezas, por fa[C]vor

[Pre-chorus 1]
And that's all we [F]got
And that's not a lot
Do we want a [Eb]bilingual household or not?

[Chorus 2]
So [Cm]let's [Dm]go sl[Eb]ow
[F]No [Gm]breaking a [F]sweat
What's the [Cm]point of [Dm]having [Eb]children
[F]If we're [Gm]drowning in [F]debt?
Yeah, we're [Cm]total[Dm]ly
Com[Eb]pletely
[F]Maybe [Gb]eighty percent
I'd say [Ab]seventy-eight

[Outro 1]
Ready to take the next
[Bb](step) (yeah, [Ab]yeah, yeah, yeah)
The [Fm]next [Bb]step (zooby [Ab]dooby...)
The [Fm]next [Bb]step (zweeby, [Ab]beeby...)
The [Fm]next [Db]step
We're [Ab]ready, set, let's—
[Gb]See I wasn't kidding
It's a [F]show about [Bb]death!
