Lyrics

My Family

My Gramma came from China and
My Grandpa came from France
My Nana came from Russia where
She was a famous dancer
Her husband, who was my grandfather,
Lived right here in town
Just like his folks before him
And that's what makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
My family is different from yours
We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner
And we're vegetarians
My family is just like yours
We work and play and laugh and cry
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.

I've got three brothers and three sisters
We are quite a crew
We eat six loaves of bread a week
We make a lot of noise, it's true
My Mommy is a doctor and my Daddy is a chef
His skin is pink and hers is brown
And that's what makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
My family is different from yours
We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner
In pandemonium
My family is just like yours
We work and play and laugh and cry
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.

My Mommy lives in one house and
My Father lives 'cross town
It took some getting used to, but
Both places fell like home by now
I've got a new Stepfather and he's nice
'Though he's not Dad
There's lots of love to go around
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
My family is different from yours
We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner
At my Mom's or at my Dad's
My family is just like yours
We work and play and laugh and cry
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.

I've got a little brother and
His hair is very red
He looks a lot like Mommy and she looks like him
Which makes good sense
Our family has two mothers
One is "Mommy," one is "Mom"
That may not be like your house, but
Two mothers can be lots of fun
That may not be like your house, but
That's what's makes the world go 'round.

CHORUS:
My family is different from yours
We eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner
Sitting on our mothers' laps
My family is just like yours
We work and play and laugh and cry
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.
We work and play and laugh and cry
And that's what's makes the world go 'round.
