Dilated to Meet You
Kate McGarrigle, Loudon Wainwright III
We're wondering when you will arrive
We're wondering what you'll be
We're wondering if you'll be a her
Or if you'll be a he
Maybe you'll arrive today
Perhaps tomorrow night
We're hoping you won't hurt too much
And that you'll be all right
Life has a few unpleasantries
We may as well confess
We suppose you'll cry a lot
And that you'll be a mess
There is one thing you should know well
Of this there is no doubt
You cannot get inside again
Once you have come out
Even though there's trouble
Even though there's fuss
We really think you'll like it here
We hope that you like us
