A Tight-Knit Family

[MARVIN]

Well, the situation's this

It's not tough to comprehend

I divorced my wife, I left my child

And I ran off with a friend



But I want a tight-knit family

I want a group that harmonizes

I want my wife, and kid, and friend

To pretend the time will mend

Our pain



So I make them interact

So I don't go by the book



We all eat as one

Wife, friend, and son

And I sing out as I cook



But I want a tight-knit family

I hope you all enjoy linguine

Talk 'til you hear the dinner bell

Such a dear clientele

I swear we're gonna come through it

I fear we'll probably fight



But nothing's impossible

If by your wit

Kid, wife, and lover

Will have to admit

I was right, I cushioned the fall



I want it all!

I want it all!

I want it!
