The Rolling Stones - Family lyrics

Your rating:
Here`s father, his heart screwed on
Yes, here he`s got it I`m sure
`Cause he lost his life in an accident
Found his heart in the man next door
What exactly`s gonna happen
When they do transplant the brain
Will my borrowed brain still compute the same
Or will my daughter suffer so much more 

Here comes the girl, she`s got her head screwed on
But it ain`t screwed on right
Her ambition is to be a prostitute
But the breaks just weren`t right
What exactly`s gonna happen, tell me
When her father finds out
That his virgin daughter has bordello dreams
And that he`s the one she wants to try out
Yeah 

There`s ma, she`s living dangerously
It`s a cinch she`ll try it anything twice
She thinks she can run right to the whirlpool`s edge
And stop herself just in time
What exactly`s gonna happen
When she finally fizzles out
The lovers will just be sucked into
To see what the colours of death are all about 

Here`s the son, has his legs a-screwed on
Yeah, they`re screwed on pretty tight
But his brain is loose and it ain`t no use
He`s already lost the fight
What exactly`s gonna happen
When he`s finally realized
That he can`t play his guitar like E.G. Jim
Or write St. Augustine if he tried 

That`s what happens
When a family finds out
That they`ve been in orbit now for a thousand years
And need a thousand more to climb out
