A family affair
We get the picture
We're in it somewhere
Permanent fixtures
People who care
Stranger beware
This is a family affair
All of our yesterday's
Familiar rings
I have to get away
Its breaking my heart strings
We have a drink
On special occasions
It makes me think
About distant relations
A family affair
Always a mixture
Of people in chairs
Permanent fixtures
With pressure to bear
People who care
This is a family affair
Holiday snapshots
Of you and myself
Acting the crackpot
Like everyone else
The Bermuda shorts
And the summer creations
Bringing thoughts
Of those distant relations
A family affair
We brake ornaments, and get them repaired
We bring up past events that hang in the air
This is a family affair
All our yesterdays
Familiar rings
I have to get away, from some sourroundings
Weddings and funerals, special occasions
And all the usual distant relations
A family affair
Look at this picture
We're in there, look there
Permanent fixtures
People who care
Whisper who dares
This is a family affair
