Lyrics
[Verse 1: LORETTA] A nanny's only duty is to the children To keep them swaddled in the safety of her care With a fierce and iron will She would fight and she would kill If she's poked She'll be provoked And you just woke up Mama bear [Verse 2: LORETTA, OLIVER] A nanny keeps her patience under pressure You'll never stop me, Nanny Forceful and resourceful as can be Don't make me laugh No matter what you might hurl toward her She keeps the goddamn house in order I'm gonna get those kids Then you'll have to go through me [Chorus: LORETTA] For the sake of a child I'd give my life completely For the sake of a child To Hell and back I'd go No, I won't bend and I won't break There are precious lives at stake With a fire, I shall face down any foe! For the sake, for the sake, for the sake For the sake of a child [Verse 3: OLIVER, LORETTA] What's a nanny? She's a ninny, she's a nothing I am their protector And no match for such a massive private dick Hm, massive? You can shut your little trap It's time for nanny's final nap And a rattle down your throat should do the trick [LORETTA, spoken] I knew it It was you all along, you're the killer! [OLIVER, spoken] I'm not just the killer I'm the father! [LORETTA, spoken] Oh, fuck [OLIVER, spoken] That's right Those kids are mine, and you can't stand in the way! [LORETTA, spoken] Over my dead body [Chorus: OLIVER & LORETTA, OLIVER] For the sake of a child I'd give my life completely (I'll take your life without a second thought) For the sake of a child To Hell and back I'd go For the sake, for the sake, for the sake For the sake of a child [LORETTA] The craze in your gaze is bone-chilling It's clear you've been serial killing [OLIVER] I did what I had to do And now I'm about to do it to you! See, you're just a baby butt-wiper Disposable just like a diaper [LORETTA] They are mine to protect [OLIVER] I have to object [LORETTA] It's me that they need! [OLIVER] They grew from my seed! [Chorus: OLIVER & LORETTA] 'Til my last breath I take I'll stay steadfast For the sake of a child You never will defeat me For a child, to death I'd dare to go Yes, I'd lay my life at stake With this solemn vow I make I'd die before I ever let them go [LORETTA] For the sake [OLIVER] For the sake [LORETTA] For the sake [OLIVER] For the sake For the sake [LORETTA, spoken] For the sake of a child
