me in honey

I heard that "Me In Honey" was a male perspective on pregnancy, and written with "Eating For Two" by 10,000 Maniacs in mind. This seems to fit pretty well as the song talks about the arguments and trials of pregnancy from the man's view ("Baby's got some new rules, baby says she's had it with me"). The end of the song shows (to me) how the man wants to be involved but is unsure of how to act : "That's a part, that's a part of me" and then the final calls of "What about me?" at the end. Another of MHO :)

I sat there looking ugly Looking ugly and mean I knew what you were saying You were saying to me Baby's got some new rules Baby said she's had it with me It seems a shame you waste your time on me It seems a lot to waste your time for me Left me to love What it's doing to me There's a lot of honey in this world Baby this honey's from me You've got to do what you do Do it with me It seems a shame you waste your time for me Left me to love What it's doing to me Knocked silly Knock flat Sideways down These things they pick you up and they Turn you around Say your piece Say you're sweet for me It's all the same to share the pain with me It's all the same. Save the shame for me Left me to love What it's doing to me Baby's got some new rules Baby says she's had it with me There's a fly in the honey And baby's got a baby with me That's a part That's a part of me Left me to love What it's doing to me Left me to love What it's doing to me What about me?
