My Friend has problems with winter and Autumn, they give him prescriptions, they shine bright
lights on him. They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it they say you can catch
it, but sometimes you're born with it. My friend has blight, he gets shakes in the night
and they say that there is no way that they could have caught it in time takes it's toll
on him it is traditional, it is inherited, prepositional. All day I've been wondering
what is inside of me, who can I blame for it? I say it runs in the family, this family
that carries me to such great lengths to open my legs up to anyone who will have me. It
runs in the family, I come by it honestly, do what you want, cuz who knows? it might
fill me up, me up, me up, me up. Fill me up, me up, me up, me up, me up, me up, me up,
me up. My friend's depressed she's a wreck she's a mess
They've done all sorts of tests and they guess it has something toDo with her grandmother's
grandfather's grandmother Civil war soldiers who badly infected her
My friend has maladies, rickets, and allergies That she dates back to the 17th century
Somehow she manages in her misery Strips in the city and shares all her best
tricks with Me? Well I'm well. Well I mean I'm in hell.
Well, I still have my health At least that's what they tell me
If wellness is this what in hells name is sickness?
But business is business and business Runs in the family
We tend to bruise easily bad in the blood I'm telling you 'cause I just want you to
know me, Know me and my family we're wonderful folks,
But don't get too close to me 'cause you might knock me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me
up, Me up, Me up. Knock me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me
up, Me up, Me up.Mary have mercy now look what I've done
But don't blame me because I can't help where I come from and Running is something that
we've always done well And mostly I can't even tell what I'm running from
I run from their pity, from responsibility, Run from the country, and run from the city
I can run from the law, I can run from myself, I can run for my life, I can run into debt
I can run from it all, I can run 'til I'm gone,
I can run for the office, and run from the cause
I can run using every last ounce of energy I cannot, I cannot, I cannot Run from my family
crazy But they would say anything if it would
up, Me up. Shut me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up, Me up.
