The words

Lyrics

Ladies and gentlemen, grandmas and grandpas, the cousins in the cheap seats — we've gathered you here today… We've seen the little heartbeat, we've counted toes on the screen, we've kept the envelope sealed up tight — the doctor knows, and we know, and in about one minute, so will all of you. Drumroll, please — is it ruffles, is it trucks? Drumroll, please — Grandma's guessing, place your bets. Hold your balloons and hold your breath, the answer's in the next line… Everybody lean in close now, Nana, put your teacup down, Papa, get the camera rolling, this is not a practice round. Ten little fingers, ten little toes, one massive family surprise — Drumroll, please — pink confetti? blue confetti? Drumroll, please — last chance, lock your guesses in. One… two… three… It's… a BABY! Gotcha. Ohhh, you want the real answer? That version of this song gets written just for you. Drumroll, please — some answers you've gotta earn. Drumroll, please — your song will sing the rest.

Behind the song

The story

The envelope stays sealed, Grandma's placing bets, and the whole party is holding its balloons through the drumroll — right up to the big reveal: it's… a BABY. Gotcha. That's the joke version. The custom version sings your actual answer — boy or girl, the name if you're ready — so the song IS the reveal. Press play and watch the room.
