Good Tradition

Theres a good tradition of love and hate

Staying by the fireside
Theres a good tradition of love and hate

Staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall
Your fathers calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your mas too proud
Your brothers ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh was this solo
Was this yesterday
Was this true for you

Cos while all the rest have taken time
This didn't do a lot for you

And the corners laced with memories

Tell you how it used to be
Your mother smiles the children play
And all the bad things happen miles away
And strong feelings never bother you

You hold your head up
While the rest of us try to
Oh call the stations
Call the people
We all want to know

Cos while all the rest have taken time
You don't wanna know

Well theres a good tradition of love and hate
Staying by the fireside
Theres a good tradition of love and hate

Staying by the fireside
And though the rain may fall
Your fathers calling you
You still feel safe inside
And though your mas too proud
Your brothers ignoring you
You still feel safe inside
Oh was this solo
Was this yesterday
Was this true for you

Cos of all the choices you have made
This didn't do a lot for you
