Momma please stop cryin, 
I can't stand the sound 
Your pain is painful 
and its tearin' me down 
I hear glasses breakin 
as I sit up in my bed 
I told dad you didn't mean 
those nasty things you said 


You fight about money, 
bout me and my brother 
And this I come home to, 
this is my shelter 
It ain't easy growin up
in World War III 
Never knowin what love could be, 
you'll see 
I don't want love to destroy me 
like it has done my family 


Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family? 
I promise I'll be better, 
Mommy I'll do anything 
Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family? 
I promise I'll be better, 
Daddy please don't leave 


Daddy please stop yellin, 
I can't stand the sound
Make mama stop cryin, 
cuz I need you around 
My mama she loves you, 
no matter what she says its true 
I know that she hurts you, 
but remember I love you, too 


I ran away today, 
ran from the noise, ran away 
Don't wanna go back to that place, 
but don't have no choice, no way 
It ain't easy growin up in World War III 
Never knowin 
what love could be, well I've seen 
I don't want love to destroy me 
like it did my family 


Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family? 
I promise I'll be better, 
Mommy I'll do anything 
Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family? 
I promise I'll be better, 
Daddy please don't leave 


In our family portrait, 
we look pretty happy 
Let's play pretend, 
let's act like it comes naturally 
I don't wanna have to split the holidays 
I don't want two addresses 
I don't want a step-brother anyways 
And I don't want my mom 
to have to change her last name 


In our family portrait 
we look pretty happy 
We look pretty normal, 
let's go back to that 
In our family portrait 
we look pretty happy 
Let's play pretend, 
act like it goes naturally 


In our family portrait 
we look pretty happy 
(Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family?) 
We look pretty normal, 
let's go back to that 
(I promise I'll be better, 
Mommy I'll do anything) 
In our family portrait 
we look pretty happy 
(Can we work it out? 
Can we be a family?) 
Let's play pretend act 
and like it comes so naturally 
(I promise I'll be better, 
Daddy please don't leave) 
In our family portrait 
we look pretty happy 
We look pretty normal, 
let's go back to that 
(I promise I'll be better, 
Daddy please don't leave) 


Daddy don't leave 
Daddy don't leave 
Daddy don't leave 
Turn around please 
Remember that the night you left 
you took my shining star 
Daddy don't leave 
Daddy don't leave 
Daddy don't leave 
Don't leave us here alone 


Mom will be nicer 
I'll be so much better, 
I'll tell my brother 
Oh, I won't spill the milk at dinner 
I'll be so much better, 
I'll do everything right 
I'll be your little girl forever 
I'll go to sleep at night
