family lyrics
this is a song about family

when i was eleven my father was drunk
and he told me to sit like a father and son
have a drink
and my mama was workin
and though i would rather be anywhere else
i sat and i drank as he talked to himself like a hero
but the man is a zero
a ten year old girl came into the room
unaware of the gloom unaware of the doom
she only came in there to use the bathroom
but her followed her in and he sealed the tomb
i went to the door but the handle was locked
and i stood there in horror half+drunk and in shock
i won’t say what he said as he came out the door
but i’ll never forget it i tell you for sure

love your mommy
love your daddy
we’re a happy family
this is a song about family

and as i grew older and i learned the truth
about what my father was like in his youth
it disgusted me
cos he treated the women and children the same
but his family covered the truth in the name of the family
cos my granny couldn’t handle it
my uncle now he was the chief of police
they cleared up his name and they got him released
i guess n0body figured my mama should know
that her man was a criminal, s+xual beast
as long as my father was out of their hair
what they don’t know well they don’t have to care
and they turned him loose on the children
as they sent him out into the world
blood to water and water to wine
it’s all water under the bridge
and i carried it with me through all of my life
motherf+cker i know what you did
cos i f+cking hated you
i looked down on you
even though i was only a kid
and we learned to be men and we learned it by doing
the opposite things of all of the things that you did

love your mommy
love your daddy
we’re a happy family
this is a song about family

and now for his family i’ll say just a few
bout this situation and bout my relations with you
all but a few
cos all of our lives we would be treated
like you was the anti+semitics and we was the jews
and that sh+t is true
we full of the lies
we full of the pain
we full of his blood
and we full of his shame
and we sick of the curse of the family name
ima change my name to withajay
and all of the pain that my mama been through
i contribute a part of it all unto you
maybe this is the reason you drink and you drink and you drink
just to bury the truth
blood to water and water to wine
it’s all water under the bridge
and i carried it with me through all of my life
motherf+cker i know what you did
cos i f+cking hated you
i looked down on you
even though i was only a kid
and we learned to be men and we learned it by doing
the opposite the opposite things
blood to water and water to wine
it’s all water under the bridge
and i carried it with me through all of my life
motherf+cker i know what you did
cos i f+cking hated you
i looked down on you
even though i was only a kid
and we learned to be men and we learned it by doing
the opposite things of all of the things that you did

love your mommy
love your daddy
we’re a happy family

this is a song about family
this is a song about family
