We all live in a big old house 8 adults, 6 kids and one pet mouse 2 dogs, 3 cats and a parakeet We got a great big garden and we never eat meat My room’s upstairs and down the hall It’s the one with the crayons all over the wall 3 other kids share the room with me We’re just one big crazy family And I’ve got 5 moms and 3 dads It may sound strange, but it ain’t so bad When you get tired of one, you can go find another It’s a whole lot better than one dad and mother. It’s not as confusing as it might be At least I know which mom and dad had me But some of the adults wonder if it’s okay To go on raising their kids this way I keep saying everything’s just fine ‘Cause mostly we have a pretty good time It’s hard to explain just what you missed If you’ve never had a home like this Where I’ve got (Chorus) I suppose some day when I’m all grown up They’ll take a survey to see if I’m screwed up Asking all of us hippie kids What we think of what our parents did I’ll have to ask which parents they mean I’ve got a whole lot more than most kids I’ve seen And if we haven’t solved all the problems yet At least we’ve come up with a whole new set! ‘Cause I’ve got (Chorus) So come on by and visit us We’re the house with the black VW bus There’s a swing out front and a beat up car And a beer sign from some western bar Sunday is our potluck night Whatever you can bring, it’ll be alright There’ll be games and songs and food and jokes I’ll introduce you to all my folks I’ve got (Chorus)
