Business as usual at the harmony home
   Up for the weekend to see my father
   So I'm the one beneath the unturned stone
   I begin the ritual fortnight saga
   Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes
   Cassette player, the jungle of hose
   A pair of shoes for walking in
   Out of the cab, the doorbell rings
  
   Hungover greetings from the man in my life
   A hug, a kiss, and a mug by the fire
   He says I should need a woman I might like
   I drop my bags and walk right by her
  
   Get in the bath, bubbles up high
   Cassette player plays in the night
   She's at the door, wants to come in
   I'm in the bath, I loudly sing
  
   Business as usual at the harmony home
   I can't believe it how time flies
   I'm waving "Seeya" from the top of the road
   She holds his hand as mother holds mine
  
   Get in the way, unbreak my heart
   I could surrender, or walk right past
   I'm in a cab, looking at him
   Out of the blue I hear a bell ring
  
   Get in the cab, bags packed with clothes
   I'm on my way to the haemony home
   A pair of shoes for walking in
   Out of the blue I hear a bell ring
