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
