It's Cool to Love Your Family
In a dressmaker shop in Greece
The pins stick like tongues on poles or butts in an ashtray
Lunchtime packages, waxed and wrapped and held
Down a dusty road, inside an apron fold
It's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family, I know
because I love them more and more
You know my grandpa brought power to the planes
Now he winks at me from thirty thousand feet
Now my uncle's got his face
And he takes the power to a different place
Hey hey, he's okay
It's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family, I know
because I love them more and more
In the Copenhagen city morgue
The dead sleep in metal slips
Called and last
And someone loved them once
And someone loves them still
And someone misses them
And someone always will
You know that, it's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family
It's cool, it's cool to love your family, I know
because I love them more and more
