This 1960s obscure vinyl record, finally restored via ai music magic, caused a bit of a stir in the groups’ hometown but The Gleeful Dreamers were never afraid to shy away from the realities of life. “I call it like I see it,” group leader Orlando Benton said in an interview not long after the record’s release. “And oh lord do I wish I hadn’t seen it.”

Lyrics:
Got a call (got a call)
From a friend (from a friend)
His wife had given birth and was on the mend
I went down (he went down)
For the week (for week)
He showed me 'round the house and finally to the nursery
But as I approached, I saw this look in his eyes
And when I peeked inside I knew exactly why
Cause
That's a f*ckin' ugly baby (a f*ckin' ugly baby)
Its eyes are lookin' crazy (both of 'em are lazy)
It's all wrinkly and wrong and its ears are too plump
Are we sure she pushed it out and didn't find it in a swamp?
Cause it's a f*ckin ugly baby (a f*ckin ugly baby)
Saw my friend (saw my friend)
He looked sad (he looked sad)
And in my head I was strugglin' to do all the crazy math
Know my friend
Know his wife
How could you put these two together and get strange alien life?
My friend said "Hey, it's not that bad is it?"
But I took another look and said I could no longer visit
Cause
That's a f*ckin' ugly baby (a f*ckin' ugly baby)
Its skin is weird and hazy (a blurry, blurry baby)
It looks like some old moldy bread that's been left out for years
Then it bared a full set of teeth at me and I discovered a new fear
Cause it's a f*ckin ugly baby (a f*ckin ugly baby)
And I ran out of that house
And should have found someone to call
Because if we don't do somethin' now
That thing will grow and kill us all
That's a f*ckin' ugly baby (a f*ckin' ugly baby)
It must eat like an octapus
No I don't that if that true
But if you see it in the wild
Don't let that thing get hold of you
Cause it's a f*ckin' ugly baby (a f*ckin' ugly baby)
Such a f*ckin' ugly baby (a f*ckin' ugly baby)
