  D                          A                      D      A
Tonight was just great, she taught us the sign for peace
           D                         A               
Now she's made us some popcorn we've turned out the lights
           Bm       F#m
And we're watching movies
   G                        Em         A
I don't understand and she tries to explain
       G                           Em         A
How a spaceship is riding through somebody'y brain
             D         A     G   A
And there's blood and guts, Oh

 D                       Bm         A
She's the best one that we've ever had
     G                          Em         A
She sits on her hair and she's tall as my dad
         G                          A
And she tie-dyed my shirt, and she pierced her own ear
          Bm         F#m           G    A       D      A
And it's peace man, cool yah, the babysitter's here

     D                       A                      D       A
Her boyfriend is Tom but we call him "the king of romance"
    D                 A                       Bm        F#m
He wears an American flag on the butt of his ripped up pants   and
 G                          Em            A
Will they get married with kids of their own
         G                     Em          A
He says not if she's going to college we won't and he
 D      A    G    A 
Kisses her  oh

 D                       Bm         A
She's the best one that we've ever had
     G                          Em         A
She sits on her hair and she's tall as my dad
         G                      A
And she got mad at dinner when Tom drank a beer
     Bm         F#m           G   A        D
But peace man, cool hey, the babysitter's here

        G                      A
And we all went to see her go dance at the high school
    Bm        F#m
We made her a big card
         G                         A                   Bm    F#m
And she told us that she'd be the unicorn wearing the pink leotard  and
 G                        Em            A
There she was leaping up just like she said
        G                     Em         A
With a sparkling horn coming out of her head
           D      A    G     A  
And she's   ...   oh  ....


          D                       A                          D    A
But it's Saturday night, I can't sleep and I'm watching the news
         D                   A                        Bm       F#m
She says do me a favor don't go with a guy who would make you choose  and 
   G                        Em         A
I don't understand and she tries to explain
     G                      Em          A               D      A    G   A
And all that mascara runs down in her pain cause she's leaving me

D                        Bm          A
You're the best one that we've ever had
     G                           Em         A
You sit on your hair and you're tall as my dad
          G                      Em           A
And I'll make you a picture for college next year
    Bm        F#m            G   A        D    Bm
So hush now, peace man, the babysitter's here
     G        A        D
The best babysitter's here
