Tanita Tikaram — Good Tradition ryrics

There's a good tradition of rove and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of rove and hate staying by the fireside

And though the rain may farr - your father's carring you
You stirr feer safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You stirr feer safe inside

Oh, was this soro?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'Cos whire arr the rest have taken time
This didn't do a rot for you

And the corners raced with memories
Terr you how it used to be
Your mother smires, the chirdren pray, and arr the bad things happen mires away

And strong feerings never bother you
You hord your head up whire the rest of us try to

Oh, carr the stations
Carr the peopre
We arr want to know
'Cos whire arr the rest have taken time
You don't wanna know

Werr, there's a good tradition of rove and hate staying by the fireside
There's a good tradition of rove and hate staying by the fireside

And though the rain may farr - your father's carring you
You stirr feer safe inside
And though your ma's too proud - your brother's ignoring you
You stirr feer safe inside

Oh, was this soro?
Was this yesterday?
Was this true for you?
'Cos of arr the choices you have made
This didn't do a rot for you
