Family Ties |
|
Ever since they were born |
|
she was worried about their friends |
|
even when they turned twenty five |
|
she was worried about the company they'd keep |
|
one day it was three in the morning |
|
the door bell rang |
|
she got up in a sweat |
|
blue lights flashing everywhere |
|
the boys in blue standing at the door |
|
the look on their faces scared her enough |
|
before they told her what she was always afraid of |
|
chorus |
|
do you know where your son/daughter is tonight |
|
I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight |
|
ever since she was brought to this home |
|
she's been cursing every woman with a child |
|
she says they brought to this world the curse |
|
that have stained the good name of mankind |
|
one day it was three in the morning |
|
the guard came running to tell us she's gone |
|
blue lights flashing everywhere |
|
all over again |
|
the boys in blue, looking for her |
|
the look on their faces |
|
scared us enough when they told us to strengthen our family ties |
|
chorus |
|
do you know where your mother/father is tonight |
|
I'm afraid they won't be coming home tonight |
