It doesn't help matters when prime time TV has Murphy Brown
I know it's not fashionable to talk about moral values
But we need to do it, it started on a Labor Day
A chance for us to get away, everyone in the house
And year by year things moved around
But everybody still got down in the house
And seldom do we have a plan but everybody lends a hand
Everyone in the house making sure we have our fun
While gettin' done what must be done in the house
Pardon me, did you say something? What are you looking at?
Tell me, what's your problem? Are you counting heads?
Are you counting things? What are you looking for?
Listen there's no problem, 'cause we got them
We already got them, we got family values
Some people say Judeo Christian values are code words
Well they are code words, code words for
Politics and money scams, endless verbal traffic jams
Keep it out of the house, 'cause you'll get what you give to me
A little R E S P E C T in the house
'Cause you know some of us have been around
And some of us still get around
But we all in the house, so don't get on our evil side
'Cause we like it rough and we're nationwide
Pardon me, did you say something?
We're all entitled to have our own opinion
And you're standing there like you smelled something
But you're entitled to even bad opinions
Many of our generation glamorize casual s** and drug use
Evaded responsibility, and trashed authority
We gonna have a good time everybody
Because the family is all in the house
Our policy must be premised on, it must reinforce
Values such as family, hard work, integrity
Personal responsibility
Made him love mom, saw what that did to him
Made him love dad, saw what that did to him
Made him love God, saw what that did to him
Made him love d**h, saw what that did to him
I know it's not fashionable to talk about moral values
Shut up
