I can't have kids 'cause of illnesses
And adoption is no alternative.
I'm saving my money to buy my first house.
People have said, "Your man needs a new spouse!"

I can't help it if we are both late bloomers.
I have missed my turn in my lifetime loop.
I pray for our friends to just accept this,
But they will not; they just keep calling me a nincompoop!

Since I can't have babies of my own,
I need an outlet to make me feel I'm all grown,
So I "adopt" those young singers half my age,
But my friends say that I've made a big mistake!

I just ignore them like I never heard that.
I'm aware of the teenage music scoop.
I pray for our friends to just accept this.
Just because I like young singers, I'm not a nincompoop!

I don't mean to drag it on, it's just that our society
Deems there's something wrong with those without babies.
Oh, please leave me alone (alone!)!

I've found my outlet for being childless
With no pets or suburban chicken coop.
I play Backstreet Boys and Usher CD's,
But that's no reason for people to call me "nincompoop"!
