lyrics

round and round and round the place,
the cleaning of the clocks
mother wants a face to face,
no one wants to talk

sister fears the roof will fall in upon her home
father plays the diplomat pretending problem solved

give it up, give it up
someone’s got to give in or give it up

you’re on the outside, looking in
you can’t help have opinions
everybody’s got a valid point of view
but what’s the point when it comes down to
a feud?

so and so said something wrong embarrassed everyone
too much dirt, too much mud to sweep beneath the rug

give it up …

you’re on the in the inside, looking out
but you cannot tell what it’s all about
all you know is enough is enough
everybody’s got a valid point of view
but what’s the point when it comes down to
caving in or living up to a higher love?

Agnes held her great grandson for one and only time
and for that moment no one spoke except in nursery rhymes
