Fish - Story From A Thin Wall

I heard the battle raging on the other side of the wall
Buried my head in a pillow and tried to ignore it all
Every night when I hear you I dream of breaking down your door
An avenging knight in shining armour to rescue you from it all
From the family business

When I see you in the supermarket
With sunglasses in the shade

Averting your eyes from those staring questions
How were those bruises made It's family business

Children clutching to your legs
They've got so much they want to say
But daddy's sitting home and drunk again
So they bite their lips and pray
And daddy don't like no strangers prying
And noses in his private affairs
And if anyone asks from the social
Well, you fell down the stairs
It's family business
