作词 : Badarou, Gould, King
Our dad
Would send us to our room
Hed be the voice of doom
He said that we would thank him later

All day
He was solid as a rock

But by eight oclock

Wed be crumbling

One night
My brother joe meand
Climbed down the family tree

That grew outside our bedroom window

We ran
Though we knew it couldnt last

Running from the past
From things that we were born to be

Looking back its so bizarre
It runs in the family

All the things we are

On the back seat of the car
With joseph and emily

We only see so far

- and we all have our daddys eyes

Looking back its so bizarre

Dad rang
The officer in charge
A man so large
He barely fit his circumstances
He said
Two kids out on the street
Were picked up on the beat
And in the station

So theres me
With emily and joe

Daddy driving home

All heading in the same direction

He knew

No matter what the breaks
Wed make the same mistakes
Couldnt take his eyes of mejoe and

Looking back its so bizarre
It runs in the family

All the things we are

On the backseat of the car

With joseph and emily

We only see so far

- and we all have our daddys eyes

Looking back its so bizarre
It runs in the family

All the things we are

Looking back its so bizarre

Like a dream within a dream
Were all somewhere in between

Like a drummer plays his drum
Like a father like a son

- and your gonna have to face the music

- face the music

Hey hey

We keep it running in familythe

Hey hey

We keep it coming in the family

hey hey

We keep it coming in the family

hey hey

We keep it coming in the family

Looking back its so bizarre

It runs in the family

All the things we are

On the backseat of the car

With joseph and emily

We only see so far

- cause we all have our daddys eyes

Take me back into your arms
Its no longer a mystery

No cause for alarm

Could have never come this far
With no sense of history

It always leaves a scar

- and we all have our daddys eyes

Looking back its bizarreso

Running in the family

Running in the family

and we all have our daddys eyes

looking back its so bizzre

running in the family

running in the family

Hey, hey!

running in the family

heyhey,

running in the family
