Infinisynth - Lyrics

Family

lyrics and music written by KarrArikh Tor

studio recording from the album Spiral Default 2013

1994 live recording from the album Subnormal Episodes

Johnny lost his father in an accident

He never saw the car

He died on impact, the other driver was drunk

The drunk walked right through the hospital doors

Uncle Tom lost his life trying to save a child

That was back in Vietnam

The bomb was in a basket, he never knew it was there

The child smiled before he died

• The world goes round (goes round) and round, yeah

Cousin Janie, she didn't want the child

Her boyfriend said it wasn't his fault

She didn't have any money to pay for the clinic

So when the child was born she threw it in a garbage can

And Uncle George, didn't know what to do

The stock market dropped, he lost, he paid his dues

What's the worth of a man when his pocket book is empty

So he jumped right out of the twenty seventh floor

• The world goes round (goes round) and round

• The world goes round (goes round) and round

• The world goes round (goes round) and round, yeah

Johnny, you've been a bad boy
