Running in the family
Running in the family
Running in the family
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 grumbling
One night my brother Joe and me
Climbed down the family trail
That grew outside our bedroom window
We ran though we knew we couldn't last
Running from the past
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
That 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
And dad and me
Daddy driving home
All heading in the same direction
He knew no matter what the brakes
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
Looking back it's so bizarre
It runs in the family
All the things we are
Looking back it's so bizarre
Looking back it's so bizarre
You're gonna have to raise the theme
You're gonna have to raise the theme
Hey, hey, hey, hey, we keep it coming in the family.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, we keep it coming in the family.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, we keep it running in the family.
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, we keep it coming in the family.
All the time we are.
All the time we are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
We always are.
