Family Ties (song)

You can choose your friends but you can't choose your family.

My mother lives on cigarettes and alcoholic drinks,
My sister lives on frequent sex and dyes her black hair pink.
My father owns a company and throws up in the sink,
And me? I’m a fink.

Chorus:
Can you be surprised,
Can you be surprised?
When I’m up to my eyes
In family ties.

My teacher is a Structuralist who says the author’s dead,
His secretary’s a Methodist who ends up in his bed.
My father owns a company and his first name is Ted,
And me? I’m off my head.

Chorus.

My lover’s a Postfeminist, at least that’s what I’ve heard,
My brother is a Communist who tells me I’m a turd.
My father owns a company and runs an expensive bird.
And me? I’m a nerd.

Chorus.

My pet dog is a Doberman who lives on KiteKat,
My sister weighs just five stone one and screams she’s getting fat.
My father owns a company and wears a fedora hat.
And me? I’m a prat.

Chorus.

My fencing master’s changed the sport and duels with his brolly,
My uncle owns a minha bird who says he’s Pretty Polly.
My father owns a company and calls his girlfriends “dolly.”
And me? I’m a wally.

Chorus.

My analyst’s a Freudian who thinks that he’s the Pope.
His mother upped and hanged her man from a specially strengthened rope.
My father owns a company and likes a furtive grope.
And me? I’m a dope.

Chorus.

My gran’s got logorrhoea, so all she does is talk.
The best advice my grandad gives is where to shove her cork.
My father owns a company and eats nuts with a fork.
And me? I’m a dork.

Chorus.

Kinky and quirky… a lovely little ditty. All the little tongue-in-cheek reminds me of the Beatles… “I am a walrus.”

Put a country tune to it and I think you've got a hit. Very good.
