Sometimes I think about my sister Sometimes I think about myself
Well she's this born-again christian And me well I don't believe in anything
I called her on the phone the other day My lover-bug was so far away
Sometimes I think about my sister Sometimes I think about myself
Sometimes I cry about my sister Sometimes I cry about myself
I think my dad was a racist Or maybe he was just an ignorant who knows
Well he thought all black people stole from you And he didn't like mexicans, he didn't care for jews, no, no
Still I wish he was alive today So we could go off to a dodger game and talk Well I'll tell him what I believe And he'll just sit there and listen to the, yin and change
Because blood is thicker than water Oh yea, blood is thicker than water At least that's what they say, ah that's what they say But I don't know, yea I don't know
Well my friends they're important to me Sure more than any family ever has been
They're the ones that bailed me out of jail They're the ones that picked me up every time I failed
Well I love them and they love me And they don't worry if I'm not what they want me to be
Ah 'cause blood is thicker than water Oh yea, blood is thicker than water At least that's what they say, that's what they say But I don't know, yea I don't know
I swore I'd never ever be like my dad He smoked and drank and yelled at everyone I swore I'd never ever be like him But now i look in the mirror and there he is, yeah
I swore I'd never ever be like him I swore I'd never ever be like him
But, blood is thicker than water Oh yea, blood is thicker than water At least that's what they say, that's what they say But I don't know, yea I don't know
