Thicker Than Blood - Nerina Pallot

O hey, hello there, sunshine, you’re raining in my head

So I’ll just pull the covers over and go straight back to bed

Yeah, I’m so motivated, but in reality

I’ll be drinking beer in my underwear at three-thirty

In the afternoon.

I watch the days go by too soon

Got to rise above the push and shove

Whatever gets you through

It’s thicker than blood, stronger than love

It’s reason enough to keep on going

It’s thicker than blood, stronger than love

And when I look at his face in the morning

He’s the reason I get up

Each New Year a resolution I’m going to do my best

To be better, smarter fitter, faster;

faster than the rest

I’ve been watching all those serious people;

seriously blue

All busy doing busy things the way busy people do

In the afternoon.

They let their lives slip by too soon

You got to rise above the push and shove

You do what you got to do

Yeah, cos it’s thicker than blood, it’s stronger than love

It’s reason enough to keep on going

It’s thicker than blood, it’s stronger than love

When I look at his face in the morning

He’s the reason I get up when I don’t want to

I don’t want to get up

Cos I ain’t grand, and I ain’t big

But then I see his face and I want to live

I’m gonna give it a go now

Give it a go now

Give it a go now

Let’s go!

Let’s go!

It’s thicker than blood, stronger than love

It’s reason enough to keep on going

It’s thicker than blood, it’s stronger than love

When I look at his face in the morning I go:

I can’t get up, oh no

It’s thicker than blood, stronger than love

It’s reason enough to keep on going

It’s thicker than blood, it’s stronger than love

When I look at his face in the morning

He’s the reason I get up
