Only Murders in the Building: Season 3 (Original Soundtrack/Deluxe Edition)
For the Sake of a Child (Oliver Version)
A nanny's only duty's to the children
To keep them swaddled in the safety of her care
With a fierce and iron will
She would fight, and she would kill
If she's poked, she'll be provoked
And you just woke up Mama Bear
A nanny keeps her patience under pressure
You'll never stop me, Nanny
Forceful and resourceful as can be
Don't make me laugh
No matter what you might hurl toward her
She keeps the goddamn house in order
I'm gonna get those kids
Then you'll have to go through me
For the sake of a child, I'd give my life completely
For the sake of a child, to hell and back I'd go
No, I won't bend, and I won't break
There are precious lives at stake
With a fire, I shall face down any foe
For the sake, for the sake, for the sake
For the sake of a child
What's a nanny? She's a ninny, she's a nothing
I am the protector
And no match for such a massive private dick
Massive?
You can shut your little trap
It's time for nanny's final nap
And a rattle down your throat should do the trick
I knew it, it was you all along, you're the killer
I'm not just the killer, I'm the father
Oh, fuck
That's right, those kids are mine, and you can't stand in the way
Over my dead body
For the sake of a child
I'd give my life completely (I'll take your life without a second thought)
For the sake of a child, to hell and back I'd go
For the sake, for the sake, for the sake
For the sake of a child
The craze in your gaze is bone-chilling
It's clear you've been serial killing
I did what I had to do, and, now, I'm about to do it to you
See, you're just a baby butt-wiper, disposable just like a diaper
They're mine to protect
I have to object
It's me that they need
They grew from my seed
'Til my last breath I'd take
I'll stay steadfast for the sake of a child, you never will defeat me
For a child, to death I'd dare to go
Yes, I'd lay my life at stake with this solemn vow I make
I'll die before I ever let them go
For the sake, for the sake
For the sake, for the sake, for the sake
For the sake of a child
To keep them swaddled in the safety of her care
With a fierce and iron will
She would fight, and she would kill
If she's poked, she'll be provoked
And you just woke up Mama Bear
A nanny keeps her patience under pressure
You'll never stop me, Nanny
Forceful and resourceful as can be
Don't make me laugh
No matter what you might hurl toward her
She keeps the goddamn house in order
I'm gonna get those kids
Then you'll have to go through me
For the sake of a child, I'd give my life completely
For the sake of a child, to hell and back I'd go
No, I won't bend, and I won't break
There are precious lives at stake
With a fire, I shall face down any foe
For the sake, for the sake, for the sake
For the sake of a child
What's a nanny? She's a ninny, she's a nothing

For the sake, for the sake
For the sake, for the sake, for the sake
For the sake of a child
