Oh baby I’m a baby tooth yeah (tooth yeah)
A baby tooth that’s in your small, small mouth (yeah)
I grow and grow along with you yeah (you yeah)
Then I get loose and one day I fall out
Like oh oh no
Now you got a big ol hole
Why did I need to go?
Well you really wanna know?
See
That’s where I used to be
A new tooth replaces me
It’s there with you
Permanently
How does it work let's break it down
I’ll break it down for you yeah
Before you’re born you start to grow all of your teeth - brand new Not just one set, right away you’re growing two (ahh yeah)
Your baby teeth and your permanent teeth too (ahh yeah) Before you’re one years old your teeth are popping through (they’re poppin, poppin)
They’re helping you to speak and helping you to chew
(they’re helping, helping)
And your baby teeth have got a job to do (they’ve gotta do it) They’re making space for all your permanent teeth too
You’ll probably lose your first tooth when you’re six or seven Lose all of your baby teeth around eleven (or twelve)
You’re growin’ up, yes you are child
But you still have a beautiful smile (beautiful smile)
Yeah see me I’m a baby I’m a baby tooth
Fallin’ out your mouth yeah, making room
See me I’m a baby I’m a baby tooth
Gettin’ out the way yeah, making room
