    Business as usual at the harmony home
    Up for the weekend to see my father
    So i'm the one beneath the unturned stone
    I begin the ritual fortnight saga
    Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes
    Cassette player, the jungle of hose
    A pair of shoes for walking in
    Out of the cab, the doorbell rings

    Hungover greetings from the man in my life
    A hug, a kiss, and a mug by the fire
    He says i should need a woman i might like
    I drop my bags and walk right by her

    Get in the bath, bubbles up high
    Cassette player plays in the night
    She's at the door, wants to come in
    I'm in the bath, i loudly sing

    Business as usual at the harmony home
    I can't believe it how time flies
    I'm waving "seeya" from the top of the road
    She holds his hand as mother holds mine

    Get in the way, unbreak my heart
    I could surrender, or walk right past
    I'm in a cab, looking at him
    Out of the blue i hear a bell ring

    Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes
    I'm on my way to the haemony home
    A pair of shoes for walking in
    Out of the blue i hear a bell ring
