It's only human to want
to inhabit every feeling you've got
and more often than not
let's take it to the Nth degree

here he goes, 'gimmie ten bucks and a head start'
heres where he goes, 'the puzzle's pullin apart'
and here's the scene:
you're yellin calmly up the street,
'are we family or what?'

From happy-go-lucky to surly-go-crazy the lot
and more often than not
admission to the battles is free
here he goes, 'gimmie ten bucks and a head start'
heres where he goes, 'pulling the puzzle apart'

and here's the scene where you whisper down the crookedest street, 'are we family, or what?'

are we family when its only if not when
sisters brothers wolf wolf lover
and the boy who stamped too many ants?
are we family?

Its only human to want
to inherit every feeling you've got
and like it or not
let's take it to the Nth degree

here we go, give us ten bucks and a head start
here's where we go, the puzzle's pulling apart
and here's the scene:
your horse is going the wrong way up the street
are we family, or what?

are we family when its not if but when
taking care of each other one bullet to another
when its all 'If a song can't save us then nothing can'
are we family, or what?

are family
to one another?
the lost to the recovered?
the new caledonian crow to the chimpanzee?
the tribal jury to the pakistani teen?
ill-starred evenings to champion mystique?

sick as a writer writing to be lighter than the uncanny
when the invasion of Antarctica's complete,
are we family?
