Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's tired she needs a rest
The kids are playing downstairs
Sister's sighing in her sleep
Brother's got a date to keep
He can't hang

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our

Our house it has a crowd
There's always something happening
And it's usually quite loud
Our mum she's so house-proud
Nothing ever slows her

Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, that was where we used to sleep
Our house, in the middle of our street
Our house, in the middle of our street
