James Whild Lea Big Family Lyrics

(spoken intro:)
You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
It seems to be the way it is
As we love and hate our families

All we wanna be is a great big family
Yeah, but all we wanna be
is a one great big, one great big,
great big family ... yeah

(spoken:)
This vision that vision
Multi-channel television
Is showing me all the anger
In a multi-cultural idealism
And this-ism, that-ism
Don't seem like realism
'Cause they is what they is
And ain't what they really isn't

And now the world is going 'round, 'round, 'round
The same old shit is going down, down down
Oh yeah down, down, down
But still we keep singing
But still we keep singing on

All we wanna be is a great big family
Yeah, but all we wanna be
is a one great big, one great big,
great big family

Now listen ...

(spoken:)
You always hurt the one you love
The one you shouldn't hurt at all
And it seems to be the way it is
As we love and hate our families
And you're dead, dusted
Relatives can't be trusted
Vultures over the Will screaming
Who is rich, who is busted

And when it's time to utter bye, bye, bye
There ain't no use in wondering why, why, why
Oh yeah why, why, why
But still we keep singing
But still we keep singing on

All we wanna be is a great big family
But all we wanna be
is a one great big, one great big,
great big family

Now get this one ...

(spoken:)
Harmony altruism
Don't appear to be truisms
As you yell from your cage
That relationship is a prison
And anger, freedom
Your neighbour commits treason
Like he's always out to get you
When there is no rhyme or is no reason

Don't waste your time on singing love, love, love
There ain't no help from up above, 'bove, 'bove
So what is love, love, love
But still we keep singing
But still we keep singing on
But still we keep singing on

All we wanna be is a great big family
But all we wanna be
is a one great big, one great big,
great big family ...

Yeah, we can sing it now ...
All we wanna be ...
All we wanna be ...

Love, love, love ...

(spoken:)
Gonna bust your ass, boy ...
