Break Up the Family lyrics

The strange logic in your clumsiest line

(It stayed, it stayed) it stayed emblazoned on my mind

You say, break up the family

And let's begin to live our lives

I want to see all my friends tonight

It wasn't Youth, it wasn't Life

Born Old, sadly wise

Resigned (well, we were)

To ending our lives

I'm so glad to grow older

To move away from those awful times

I want to see all my friends tonight

Yes, you found love, but you weren't

At peace with your life

Home late, full of hate

Despise the ties that bind

I'm so glad to grow older

To move away from those younger years

I'm in love for the first time

And I don't feel bad

Let me see all my old friends

Let me put my arms around them

Cause I really do love them

Now does that sound mad?

Captain of games, solid framed

I stood on the touchline

Hailstones, driven home

In a car - no brakes? I don't mind

I'm so glad to grow older

To move away from those darker years

Oh, I'm in love for the first time

And I don't feel bad

So wish me luck my friends

Goodbye

So wish me luck again

Goodbye

Wish me luck my friends

Goodbye

(Mmm... wish me luck, my friends

Goodbye)

Ahh...

Ahh...
