Family Business |
| I heard a battle ragin |
| On the other side of the wall |
| I buried my head in a pillow and tried to ignore it all |
| Every night when I hear you |
| I dream of breakin down your door |
| An avengin knight in shinin armor to rescue you from it all |
| From this family business |
| Family business |
| How long does it stay |
| Family business |
| Oh, it’s nobody’s business |
| This family business |
| But tell me how long it should stay |
| Family business |
| When I see you in the supermarket |
| Sunglasses in the shade |
| Avertin your eyes from those starin questions |
| How were those bruises made |
| The children clutch tight to your legs |
| They’ve got so much they want to say |
| But daddy’s sittin home drunk again |
| So they bite their lips and pray |
| Cause daddy don’t like people pryin |
| Pokin in his family affairs |
| And if anyone ask from the social well |
| You fell down the stairs |
| It’s family business |
| Keep it in the family business |
| Can you tell me how long it remains |
| Family business |
| Oh, it’s nobody’s business |
| This family business |
| Can you tell me how long it should stay |
| Family business |
| She’s waitin at the bus stop |
| At the bottom of the hill |
| She knows she’ll never catch it |
| She knows she never will |
| The kids are all she lives for |
| She’s got nothin left to lose |
| Nowhere to escape to |
| But she knows she’s got to move |
| Cause when daddy tucks the kids in |
| Its takin longer every night |
| And the heaven that she’s waitin for |
| Through the hell it lasts all night |
| It’s family business |
| Keep it in the family business |
| Can you tell me how long it remains |
| Family business |
| Oh, it’s nobody’s business |
| Oh, this family business |
| Can you tell me how long it should stay |
| Family business |
| So I become an accessory |
| And I don’t have an alibi |
| To the victim on my doorstep |
| The only way I can justify |
| It’s family business |
| Family business |
| How long do we keep it |
| Family business |
