Story Behind The Song

The Nuclear Family

Song Description

The fragmented Family

Lyrics

I can hear the sound of footsteps, walking on down the street,
a cadence shuffle worn by, kids with frantic feet,
second Mother third home, two stepbrothers and me, I can't believe that this is what God planned for me

CHORUS
Wev'e become a family, of strangers
No more leather bound traditions that we used to know
We've become a family of strangers, inside out and upside down
makes it hard for love to grow

I can see young Fatherless faces, silouhettes flash on my wall, I can hear them asking questions, as they stumble and fall, hey Ma can you tell me, what my Father was like, did he walk and talk like me, and did he have ambition like me? I would have loved to see but-------
CHORUS
