Head Of The Table

Caught this bit of news

From unexpected quarters

You in your close-knit family

Who says what you should be after

Don't you know what you should be after

Unless you consult the head of the table

The head of the table

He's stern and strong

Caught this bit of news

From unexpected quarters

Such a close-knit family

Keeps you on the straight and narrow

You find that you're unable

To do what you want

The head of the table

He's stern and strong

So run along

Little boy run along

The head of the table would bend

If you're able to prove that you're right

And he's wrong
