BOY GEORGE - Happy Family lyrics

rate me

Happy ever after

That's the story that you're told

When you're young, your mother says it's so

But when you hear them fight

In your bedroom late at night

You wonder does she really know

Can't you see

This ain' t the way it's supposed to be

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Can't you see

I hate the way that you talk to me

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Jealousy and laughter

Noone ever told you why, oh why

But they stay together always do or die

When he looks at you

Just do as I say not as I do

No wonder that your anger, anger grows

Can't you see

This ain' t the way it's supposed to be

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Can't you see

I play no part of your misery

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Can't you see, can't you see?

(mother father sister brother)

(happy family)

When you hear them fight

In your bedroom late at night

You wonder does she really know, no

Can't you see

This ain' t the way it's supposed to be

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Can't you see

I play no part of your misery

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family

Mother Father Sister Brother

Happy family
