The Cheeky Few - Cousins' Cousins Lyrics



The Cheeky Few - Cousins' Cousins Lyrics




On an easy summer morning gravel grinds as they pull up
There's a duster and a Datsun, a Durango pick up truck
It's too late to say you're busy or to pawn em on your aunt
Make a pallet in the spare room between them potted plants

Flood comes through the doorway spills across the room
Cries and laughs and elbows now who belongs to whom
They brought nothing but their appetites for something from the fridge
Shoulda closed the curtains coulda changed the locks but this is what family is

They're your cousins' cousins so there's nothing left to say
They ain't no strong relations but they're coming anyway
So tell 'em that you love 'em no matter when they call
Cause the heart is big enough for one and all
The heart is big enough for one and all.

They'll ask if you found religion and they'll tell you how to vote
They got ideas on raising kids and expect that you'll take note
Clankin' plates too early telling jokes till way too late
Don't matter how you ask there ain't no departure date

They're your cousins' cousins so there's nothing left to say
They ain't no strong relations but they're coming anyway
So tell 'em that you love 'em no matter when they call
Cause the heart is big enough for one and all
The heart is big enough for one and all.

They're dusty from their travels and they speak in distant tongues
Crossed seas and swamps and deserts to get from whence the come
There's one rule of livin' that we all must understand
We gotta treat em like our cousins when they reach out their hands

They're your cousins' cousins so there's nothing left to say
They ain't no strong relations but they're coming anyway
So tell 'em that you love 'em no matter when they call
Cause the heart is big enough for one and all
The heart is big enough for one and all
