Oh, I’m living with my granny and a lady called Annie
And the lady’s kind of shady cause she used to be a man
She’s in love with Uncle Davy who’s retired from the Navy
Uncle Davy says he’s still in love with Gran.
REFRAIN:
Oh, they’re my oddball family
And they’ve always cared for me
They’re a bit in disarray
But I love them anyway
Oh, they’re a pretty gruesome lot
But they’re all that I have got
And I wouldn’t trade them all
For anything.
Oh, my mother’s not my mother and my Daddy’s not my Dad
And my sister raised me up though heaven knows she’s raving mad
Oh, we live with a musician who has got a skin condition
But he’s still the nicest Daddy that I’ve had.
(repeat Refrain)
Oh, my Daddy does the washing while my mother goes to school
And my sister’s selling door-to-door new-fangled garden tools
And my Daddy sells his carvings just to keep us all from starving
And my brother loves to dress up like a ghoul
(repeat Refrain)
There’s a plumber in the kitchen, there’s a builder in the hall
There are roaches in the sugar and the rats live in the walls
Well, I think my Mum’s in China but I really can’t recall
And I guess it doesn’t matter anyway.
REFRAIN:
Oh, they’re my oddball family
And they’re fine as fine can be
Yes, they’re starting to decay
But I love them anyway
They’re not politically correct
But I don’t suffer from neglect
And I wouldn’t trade them all
For anything.
We live inside a house on wheels that used to be a bus
If we all get bored we drive away, I guess that is a plus
I don’t know all the names of all the cats who live with us
Or the goat who likes to follow me to school
(repeat Refrain)
