Letra Family business Fish

Family business

I heard a battle raging on the other side of the wall
I buried my head in a pillow and tried to ignore it all.
Every night when I hear you I dream of breaking down your door
An avenging knight in shining armour, to rescue you from it all.

From this family business, family business
How long does it stay, family business.
Its nobodys business, this family business,
But tell me how long it remains family business.

When I see you at the supermarket, sunglasses in the shade
Averting your eyes from those staring questions, how were those bruises made?
The children clutch tight to your legs, theyve got so much they want to say
But daddys sitting home, drunk again so they bite their lips and pray
Cos daddy dont like people poking in his private affairs
And if anyone asks from the social, well, you tripped and fell down the stairs.

Its family business, keep it in the family business.
Can you tell me how long it remains family business?
Its nobodys business, this family business.
But tell me how long it should stay family business.

Shes waiting at the bus stop at the bottom of the hill
She knows shell never catch it, she knows she never will.
The kids are all she lives for, shes got nothing left to lose,
Nowhere to escape to, but she knows shes got to move.
Cos when daddy tucks the kids in, its taking longer every night.

Its family business, keep it in the family business.
Can you tell me how long it reamins family business?
Its nobodys business, this family business.
But tell me how long it should stay family business.

So I become an accessory and I dont have an alibi
To the victim on my doorstep the only way I can justify.

Its family business, family business.
How long do we keep it family business?
