Thicker Than Blood
O hey, hello there, sunshine, you're raining in my head
So I'll just pull the covers over and go straight back to bed
Yeah, I'm so motivated, but in reality
I'll be drinking beer in my underwear at three-thirty
In the afternoon. I watch the days go by too soon
Got to rise above the push and shove
Whatever gets you through

It's thicker than blood, stronger than love
It's reason enough to keep on going
It's thicker than blood, stronger than love
And when I look at his face in the morning
He's the reason I get up

Each New Year a resolution I'm going to do my best
To be better, smarter fitter, faster; faster than the rest
I've been watching all those serious people; seriously blue
All busy doing busy things the way busy people do
In the afternoon. They let their lives slip by too soon
You got to rise above the push and shove
You do what you got to do

Yeah, cos it's thicker than blood, it's stronger than love
It's reason enough to keep on going
It's thicker than blood, it's stronger than love
When I look at his face in the morning
He's the reason I get up when I don't want to
I don't want to get up
Cos I ain't grand, and I ain't big
But then I see his face and I want to live
I'm gonna give it a go now
Give it a go now
Give it a go now
Let's go!
Let's go!

It's thicker than blood, stronger than love
It's reason enough to keep on going
It's thicker than blood, it's stronger than love
When I look at his face in the morning I go:
I can't get up, oh no

It's thicker than blood, stronger than love
It's reason enough to keep on going
It's thicker than blood, it's stronger than love
When I look at his face in the morning
He's the reason I get up
