Yo La Tengo - Dedicated Thespian Has Teeth Pulled To Play Newborn Baby In High School Play lyrics

He's very very very dedicated to his art. He had the dentist pull his teeth So he could get the part. Now everything he does, He does as practice for the play. He kicks his feet and throws a fit When things don't go his way. Instead of sleeping in a bed, He's sleeping in a crib. And at the dinner table now, He dribbles on his bib. He puts his fingers in his food, Then drops it on the floor. Then he spills his cup of milk, And screams for more. His mother says his acting style Is getting on her nerves. He'll either give up, Or get the spanking he deserves.
