[the "Baby on Board" lyrics]
Homer , Apu , Principal Skinner , Barney : Baby on Board/How I've adored/That sign on my car's window pane/The bounce in my step/loaded with pep/'cause I'm driving in the carpool lane/Call me a square/Friend, I don't care/That little yellow sign can't be ignored/I'm telling you, it's mighty nice/Each trip's a trip to paradise/With my baby on board!

Homer : [after hearing "Baby On Board" could be a hit] Wait'll I tell Marge.
Nigel : Oh, yes. Bouffant Betty. Well, I would prefer we kept your marriage a secret. You see, a lot of women are going to want to have sex with you, and, uh, we want them to think they can.
Homer : Well, if I explain it to Marge that way, I'm sure she'll understand.
[at the house, Marge cries into her pillow]
Homer : [trying to comfort her] Come on, honey. It'll only be 'til we finish our tour of Sweden.
