Family-Shaped Ridiculousness

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Mom dropped her keys in the cereal bowl, Then blamed the spoon for losing control. She called the toaster a tiny TV, And somehow made burnt toast taste fancy. [Pre-Chorus] We roll our eyes, then pull her near, The strangest genius in the house is here. [Chorus] Mom, you’re a mess, but you’re our mess, You turn every day into a guessing contest. You lose your glasses while they’re on your head, Still you’re the first one we call instead. My sister’s a goof, and I’m no less, We’re one big family-shaped ridiculousness. [Verse 2] My sister mixed up Tuesday and May, Wore two left shoes to school yesterday. She swore the moon was following her car, Then asked the mailbox where the planets are. [Pre-Chorus] We tease too much, but the truth is clear, Life would be boring if you weren’t here. [Chorus] Mom, you’re a mess, but you’re our mess, You turn every day into a guessing contest. You lose your glasses while they’re on your head, Still you’re the first one we call instead. My sister’s a goof, and I’m no less, We’re one big family-shaped ridiculousness. [Bridge] Three sisters gone, and the house feels wide, We carry their laughter on the inside. So if the jokes get sharp, let the kindness show, We love our people more than they’ll ever know. [Final Chorus] Mom, you’re a mess, but you’re our mess, Even your worst ideas deserve a little tenderness. My sister’s a goof, and I’ll own mine too, The whole wild bunch is better because of you. Mom, you’re a mess, but you’re our mess, Family is love in a crooked dress. [Outro] Keys in the cereal, shoes on the wrong feet, Still somehow you make this family complete.
