lirik lagu bring my family back – live at alexandra palace – faithless
i’m on a lonely street age nearly three
recently mama’s cryin’ all the time
is it because of me or my younger sister
even dad was weepin’ when he kissed her
face all puffy like a blister
cryin’ like he missed her
since we moved away from the house
where we used to play
they say i’ll understand on day but i doubt it
mama never say nothin’ about it
how’d it get to be so crowded?
i found it a strain
everywhere i look i see pain
and i can’t escape the feelin’
maybe i’m to blame
so, i strain to listen
prayin’ for a decision, wishin’ they were kissin’
this feels like extradition or exile
mama finds it hard to smile
so, i make pretend cups of coffee in her favorite style
she says, “child, i’m workin’ so there’s nothin’ you lack”
but she know i want my dad, i want my family back
i just want my family back
i’m on lonely street, age forty-three
couldn’t gauge when to quit so my wife quit me
she took offense, took the kids
i wish that was the end
but before she took her leave
she took care of my best friend
workin’ all the hours
god send was not the tactic
you see, ’cause after ten years
i’m left with jack dish
wanted to make the cash quick
so i had to work real late
bad s-x, my woman’s vex even if i stay awake
and if i’m honest, i had a l!ckle cake at the office
i was eatin’
we’d do our cheating over coffees
makin’ tea for the bosses
makin’ free with me
and i agree i got sleazy too easily
but i’m forty three
this doesn’t usually happen to me
now i’m lonely
i’m wonderin’ what my son’s doin’ today
suddenly i’m blinkin’ like the screen on my computer display
and i’m drinkin’
concerned about what’s down the track
if i don’t get my family back
i want my family back, yeah
sing it!
mm, i want my family back
i’m on lonely street, number fifty-three
boarded up properly
i’ll probably get pulled down
litter all around inside there’s no sound and no light
but yo, it gets busy at night
people creepin’
derelicts sneakin’ into fix
speakin’
on the way my timbers creakin’, roof leakin’
and bricks comin’ loose
knee high in refuse
but even though i’m a slum
i’m still of some use
huh
there was a time when my walls where decorated
and under my roof children where educated
but now paint’s faded, windows are all smashed
a crash in the economy robbed me of my family
and no strategy combats negative equity
so, that’s it
like violence it’s drastic
i’m freakin’ and seekin’ to be more than just a house for crack
somebody bring my family back
