[00:03.95]They're the perfect
[00:04.90]Loving family so adoring
[00:08.12]And I love them
[00:09.28]Every day of every week
[00:12.17]So my son's a little shit
[00:14.25]My husband's boring
[00:16.44]And my daughter
[00:17.56]Though a genius is a freak
[00:20.62]Still I help them
[00:21.94]Love each other
[00:23.34]Father mother
[00:24.66]Sister brother
[00:26.16]Cheek to cheek
[00:27.36]
[00:28.62]Natalie it's four in the morning is everything ok
[00:32.57]Everything's great why wouldn't it be great it's great
[00:36.74]
[00:37.36]Honey you need to slow down take some time for yourself
[00:42.11]I'm going to have sex with your father
[00:44.28]Great thanks I'm so glad I know that
[00:48.01]
[00:49.70]So it's times like these
[00:51.18]I wonder how I take it
[00:53.95]And if other families
[00:55.62]Live the way we do
[00:58.27]If they love each other
[00:59.84]Or if they just fake it
[01:02.59]And if other daughter
[01:04.15]Feel like I feel too
[01:06.82]'Cause some days
[01:07.65]I think I'm dying
[01:09.50]But I'm really only
[01:11.07]Trying to get through
[01:14.40]For just another day
[01:17.71]For another stolen hour
[01:20.95]When the world will
[01:21.79]Feel my power and obey
[01:25.96]It's just another day
[01:29.28]Feeling like I'll live forever
[01:32.38]Feeling like this feeling never goes away
[01:37.30]For just another day
[01:40.78]
[01:42.80]When it's up to you
[01:44.14]To hold your house together
[01:47.08]A house you built with
[01:48.62]Patience and with care
[01:51.10]But you're grappling with
[01:52.58]That grey and rainy weather
[01:55.49]And you're living on a latte
[01:57.96]And a prayer
[02:00.09]Can you keep
[02:00.84]The cup from tipping
[02:02.72]Can you keep
[02:03.50]The grip from slipping in despair
[02:07.57]For just another day
[02:11.01]In the hustle and the hurry
[02:14.30]You want to wipe
[02:15.79]Your worry clean away
[02:19.18]For just another day
[02:22.82]I will keep the
[02:23.89]Plates all spinning
[02:25.61]With a smile so white
[02:27.46]And winning all the way
[02:31.40]'Cause what doesn't kill me
[02:33.50]Doesn't kill me
[02:34.90]So fill me up
[02:36.08]For just another day
[02:38.43]It only hurts when I breathe
[02:39.88]It only hurts when I try
[02:41.33]It only hurts when I think
[02:42.73]It only hurts when I cry
[02:44.08]It only hurts when I work
[02:45.36]It only hurts when I play
[02:46.84]It only hurts when I move
[02:48.24]It only hurts when I say
[02:51.01]It's just another day a busy busy day
[02:54.98]And the morning sun
[02:56.16]Is stunning I will hold it all together
[02:57.91]And you wish that you
[02:59.25]Were running far away I will hide the mess away
[03:02.82]It's just another day and I'll survive another day
[03:06.38]Birds are singing
[03:07.61]Things are growing
[03:08.44]And I will pray To hold on
[03:09.85]And you wish
[03:10.34]You could be going
[03:11.69]But you stay and you stay
[03:14.80]And stay forever and for my family's sake
[03:16.77]Though you know it's now or never
[03:18.42]I'll take what I can take
[03:19.82]And you know that for forever
[03:21.03]I'm only just awake
[03:22.63]Every day is just another
[03:25.57]And another and another
[03:28.46]I will hold it all together
[03:31.27]We're the perfect loving family
[03:34.30]If they say we're not then fuck 'em
[03:37.25]The perfect loving family
[03:39.52]I will keep the plates all spinning
[03:41.91]And the world just keeps on spinning
[03:45.19]And I think the house is spinning
