Living in the 90's
Nathan is 15 and he lives in his room
He’s trying to learn every Hendrix tune
Jeannie’s a year older and she lives at the mall
She dresses in black, she’s seen it all

They got a pit bull named Uzi, who’s lost all his teeth
Got a Boa Constrictor whose name is Keith
Mom is an artist, she’s had to persevere
And Dad came out of the closet last year

Hey, hey what can you say
They are living in the land of the free
My, my they are trying to get by, like you and me
Just an average American Family

They’ve got a house and a mortgage and a Volvo sedan
They got a basement full of cannabis plants
Mom makes a brownie that’s the living end
And if you don’t believe me, ask Dad’s boyfriend

Hey, hey what can you say
They are living in the land of the free
My, my they are trying to get by, like you and me
Just an average American Family

Every where you look, in every little town
It takes all kinds to make this world go around

And if they don’t always have dinner together
That don’t mean they’re not birds of a feather
Friday nights they get out the old Ouija board
And channel with a Spanish conquistador

Hey, hey what can you say
They are living in the land of the free
My, my they are trying to get by, like you and me
Just an average American Family


-Barney Bentall
