Running In The Family

歌詞

Our dad would send us to our room He'd be the voice of doom He said that we would thank him later All day, he was solid as a rock But by eight o'clock We'd be crumbling One night, my brother Joe and me Climbed down the family tree That grew outside our bedroom window We ran, though we knew it couldn't last Running from the past From things that we were born to be Looking back, it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are On the back seat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back, it's so bizarre Dad rang the officer in charge A man so large He barely fit his circumstances He said two kids out on the street Were picked up on the beat And in the station So there's me, with Emily and Joe Daddy driving home All heading in the same direction He knew, no matter what the breaks We'd make the same mistakes Couldn't take his eyes off Joe and me Looking back, it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are On the back seat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back, it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are Looking back, it's so bizarre Like a dream within a dream We're all somewhere in between Like a drummer plays his drum Like a father, like a son And your gonna have to face the music, oh yeah Face the music Hey hey, we keep it running in the family Hey hey, we keep on coming in the family Looking back, it's so bizarre It runs in the family All the things we are On the back seat of the car With Joseph and Emily We only see so far 'Cause we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back, it's so bizarre, whoa yeah Running in the family Running in the family And we all have our daddy's eyes Looking back, it's so bizarre, whoa yeah Running in the family
