It’s all in a family, that’s no lie Even stays that way after we die Leaves, branches, twigs on a family tree And the forest can be hard to see Mother and father are in charge And the brand new baby will loom large Brothers, sisters, uncles, aunts, It’s a family life, so take a chance It’s a work in progress, can’t you see And the why, wherefore, is a mystery When the family fights they know next door No-one wins in a family war Then there’s that thing, it’s all made up Dare we sing that the thing is not Love heals heartache and familial pain And what family is not insane? Just give them all a hug and a kiss At the wake, that wedding, birthday, bris And the function let disfunction rule No shallow end in the family pool We gather for the holiday And pray for a quick safe getaway No-one so close, nothing so real And the smallest thing is the biggest deal That so-and-so did such-and-such How can you love someone so much? Forgive, forget, and finally see The forest from the family tree It’s all in a family, that’s no lie It’ll stay that way after we die You forgive, forget, and finally see When you get to hold the new baby
