"Family" from Charles Griffin Gibson's "People" (2010)

Being the only son of a plumber's family / Asleep on the bus holding onto a memory / Checkbooks and bills watchin' your hard earned money / Your uncle's cigarette butts out on the Christmas tree / Limos with Madonna on MTV / Sunday morning papers and iced tea / Sleeping with a woman you can't believe / Could be dumb enough to let the mouse you caught go free / Honey sit down have a drink with me / Clothes, dogs, jobs, cars and coffee / In Central Park I look at the kids and I see / A bunch of little brats from some Italian movie / And when I look in their eyes / They look in my eyes / Mesmerized / In the United States of America / New York, New England, LA, Pennsylvania / Families at the dinner table blah blah blah / 17 year old boys texting Amanda / Talking back / Holding onto their bag of smack / Behind dad's back / His first cigarette at the party / Kids smoking blunts in Mercedes / Hip-hop, hot tubs, moonlit jewelry / Dancing with a girl named Becky / And her Blackberry / Fell in the grass / She missed the last call from her Mom / Pukin' at the rock at the back road / Screams and shouts blowin' through the neighbors window / Garage doors with lightning bugs in a glow / Your first cigarettes flying out the back window / The black widows / The musty roads / The grass that grows / The lord who knows / The girls who sew / The men who mow / The wind that blows / The sails around / Mothers sitting in the dark angrily / As kids come home drunk after the prom party / Fathers asleep in their tool sheds cozily / Who do I love more my friends or my family? / Sons becoming fathers brazenly / Cousins thinkin' their cousins are lazy / Husbands and wives waking up to their baby / Screamin' in the night / In the light / For someone / For anyone
