What are the lyrics to Family portrait by Pink?

Answer 1

Mama please stop cryin'

i can't stand the sound

Your pain is painful

And it's tearin' me down

I hear glasses breakin'

As i sit up in my bed

I told Dad you didn't mean

Those nasty things you said

You fight about money

'Bout me and my brother

And this i come home to

This is my shelter

It ain't easy, growin' up in World War 3

Never knowin' what love could be

You'll see, I don't want love to destroy me

Like it has done my family

Can we work it out?

(Can we?)

Can we be a family?

(Can we?)

I promise I'll be better

(I promise)

Mommy, I'll do anything

(I'll do anything)

Can we work it out?

Can we be a family?

I promise I'll be better

Daddy, please don't leave

Daddy please stop yelling

(Stop)

I can't stand the sound

(Can't stand the sound)

Make mama stop cryin'

'Cause I need you around

My mama she loves you

(I know it)

No matter what she says is true

I know that she hurts you

But remember I love you too

I ran away today

Ran from the noise, Ran away

(Ran away)

Don't wanna go back to that place

But don't have no choice, no way

It ain't easy, growin' up in World War 3

Never knowin' what love could be

That I've seen, I don't want love to destroy me

(I don't want love to destroy me)

Like it did my family

Can we work it out?

(Can we work it?)

Can we be a family?

I promise I'll be better

(I promise I'll do anything)

Mommy, I'll do anything

(To keep you better)

Can we work it out?

Can we be a family?

I promise I'll be better

(I promise, I promise)

Daddy, please don't leave

(Stay)

In our family portrait

(In our family portrait)

We look pretty happy

(We look pretty happy)

Let's play pretend

(Let's play pretend)

Let's act like it comes naturally

(That's right)

(That's right)

I don't wanna have to split the holidays

(No, no)

I don't want two addresses

(No)

I don't want a stepbrother anyways

And i don't want mommy

Have to change her last name!

In our family portrait

We look pretty happy

We look pretty normal

Let's go back to that

In our family portrait

We look pretty happy

Let's play pretend

In our family portrait

We look pretty happy

(Can we be a family?)

Daddy turn around please

Remember that the night you left

You took my shining star

Daddy don't leave

Daddy don't leave

Daddy don't leave

Don't leave us here alone

Mama'll be nicer

I'll be so much better

I'll tell my brother

I won't spill milk the at dinner

I'll be so much better

I'll do everything right

I'll be your little girl forever

I'll go to sleep at night

Ohh ho ohh ho

Ohh ho ohh ho
