Families out on parade Women are minding their ways Teenagers drawn by the fire And bellies filled with desire Mothers and fathers, brothers and sons Daughters, sisters, all and then some Remember the story is old It goes on and on Old men drowning their tears They're drunk from an orgy of years All part of the plot and the fun A history of righting our wrongs Mothers and fathers, brothers and sons Daughters, sisters, all and then some Remember the story is old It goes on and on and on Bound to bond and love and mourn And on and on and on And so it goes, We give what we get, Yet what they know Is what we're told So you might add a little hurt Add a little hope next time But in this life This time we're lost and it goes on "Matter over mind" We made the change from science to movement Romantic conceit evermore Might know what we know, like we think that we're thinking But the sun has set here before And somebody spoke of a light in the distance Too far away to aware But your kiss is a kiss is a kiss and I'm waiting for roses to grow anywhere
