Meet The Wainwrights

(album: Years In The Making - 2018)

Meet the Wainwrights on the train, the boat, the bus
Join the family come on, rub elbows with us
We're the Wainwrights that singing family
For five days and five nights come sample our reality

In Alaska, that wild and crazy state
It's a safe distance from the lower forty-eight
We're the Wainwrights we gets looks and we get stares
More than eagles, Eskimos, glaciers, moose, and bears

Meet the Wainwrights now we finally have a show
Forget the Osbournes, those Kardashians must go
We're the Wainwrights we can play and we can sing
Our Sound of Music kind of a screwed up Von Trapp like thing

Rufus Wainwright you remember him?
Once was a tit man now he checks pecs out at the gym
I have a trainer traveling with me on the bus
'Cause he's more famous and much richer than the rest of us

La-la-la-la...

Yeah, we got Roaches from that awesome singing crew
Suzzy and Lucy they're a daughter/mother twosome
But they're Wainwrights, and for that we are glad
Once upon a happy time I slept with Lucy's dad

Sloany Wainwright has a voice that will not quit
There's an eagles and whales are afraid of it
And Sarah Palin runs the other way
Is Sarah in Alaska or has she moved to LA?

La-la-la-la...

Martha Wainwright happily is here
Though there are sometimes Martha chooses to steer clear
Being a Wainwright can be a little much
But Martha and the bloody motherfucking asshole stay in touch

Loudon Wainwright, hey he's the patriarch
Yeah he's the skunk man who can get a little dark
He is important and would like to make it clear
That were it not for Loudon none of you folks would be here

So meet the Wainwrights on the train, the boat, the bus
We're the Wainwright's, c'mon and rub elbows with us
We're the Wainwrights that singing family
Stuck here on Cayamo we are stranded out at sea
The adventure of a lifetime with the Wainwright family
