Sister 4 and Brothers 3
|
Hanging off the family tree
|
Practising for getting old
|
Do you want your fortune told
|
They're looking for you high and low
|
Now there's nowhere for you to go
|
So you'll just have to come out and face the music
|
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
|
Long ago when we were kids and we cut your hair to bits
|
As we carried off like spoils the heads we'd smash right off
|
your dolls
|
But the wind is changing you know
|
Are you sure of your friends and your foe
|
Have you got what it takes to carry it off
|
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
|
|
As the sun beats down and life begins to complicate
|
Will we both incinerate
|
If we touch that brass name-plate
|
|
Messrs. All, noble Sirs
|
Highly paid solicitors
|
Find enclosed my signed divorce
|
Sad proceedings you endorse
|
The burden of pity will show
|
In the people we used to know
|
Have you got enough strength to carry it off
|
Jacksons, Monk and Rowe
