Lyrics

Here we are
Here we are
Here we are
Here we are

Who would have thought this game, this flame, would still be burning?
Who would have guessed that all these blenders would still be churning?
Not even we, on our bended knees could have ever blessed it
Not even i, with my head in the sky could have ever guessed it, but..
Here we are, for a family reunion, costume barbeque
All the black sheep, family outcasts and a freak or two

No, the hat tricks and the gold bricks still don't have us down
Still a "party for the hearty" when we come to town
You're still grinnin', we're still winnin', nothing left to say
Death defyin' as I go flyin' down this endless wave, and..
Here we are, we're the offbeat uncle fred's who spill their wine on you
And the "in your face" aunt rachel's with an attitude
All the ones who use your bathroom then eat all your food
We're the dreamy deadheads who just like us and dave matthews

Here we are, maybe it's because in spite of all the work we do
It's the child in us we really value
Here we are, with our fins up and our feathers flashing
Here we are, with our coconut shell brassieres chaffing..

Here we are
Here we are
Here we are
Here we are
