Family Function

(Christopher Wilson)
Family Function
(C. Wilson)

my son came out today
whipped me right into shape
what some depict dysfunctional
buckets full of shade

but I know that's not true
I ride the same bus too
what I perceive as natural as sky
the sun and moon

I dream all us as one
like rainbows from the sun
I can't let hate bestow my fate
my sausage curls undone

for the family function
the family function
it's a family function

how boring just one mold
so squares and circles fold
triangles are nothing new
let them fuss and feud

this bus was built to ride
and will till the end of time
so why disgrace what you can't erase
the colors pink and gray and lime

it's a...it's a...it's a...it's a family function

a family function
we're a family function
make the family function

it's a family function
we're a family function
so make the family function
