Happy Family

Happy Family - Sundara Karma

Lyricist：Oscar Pollock

Composer：Oscar Pollock

Left and right they're calling me back home

And I've heard their cries

I've felt it in my bones

Left and right they choke me tight

I'm overworn and out of sight

I've heard their cries

I've felt it in my bones

Been searching for a long time in this town

We're looking for a goldmine

So we can get out

To find a place or waste away

Another day that goes by

Another card we know we should be grateful

But sometimes it's hard we're so alone

But it's not for long

Well maybe we were disavowed

Careful what you wish for now

Nothing lasts forever

Time will always take its toll

And if a broken home is on the shelf

You know what we should ask ourselves

Were we ever happy acting in a family role

Been dreaming of those bright lights in the city

Waking with a cold fright

Oh what a pity a bad nights sleep

The fourth this week

You're longing for a partner

To get you through wishing that in time

You'll find someone to hold onto to

But maybe we were disavowed

Careful what you wish for now

Nothing lasts for ever

Time will always take its toll

And if a broken home is on the shelf

You know what we should ask ourselves

Were we ever happy acting in a family role

Heavens have you seen

The news that's on the screen

It's all violence heartbreak and misery

Heavens have you seen

What they have done to me

I'm a hollow shell from the grim 90's

Maybe we were disavowed

Careful what you wish for now

Nothing lasts forever time will always take its toll

And if a broken home is on the shelf

We know what we should ask ourselves

Were we ever happy acting in a family role
