---------------...........
 Father wears his Sunday best,
 Mother's tired she needs a rest, the kids  are playing up downstairs.
 Sister's sighing in her sleep,
 Brother's got a date to keep; he can't  hang around.
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our...
 Our house it has a crowd,
 There's always  something happening, and it's usually  quite loud.
 Our mum she's so house-proud.
 Nothing ever slows her down, and a mess  is not allowed.
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our...
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Something tells  you that you've got  to get a-way  from it.
 Father gets up late for work,
 Mother has to iron his shirt, then  she sends the kids to school.
 Sees them off with a small kiss.
 She's the one they're going to miss, in lots  of ways.
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our...
 I remember way back then, when everything was true, and when,
 We would have such a very good time;
 Such a fine  time, such a happy  time.
 And I  remember how we'd play,
 Simply waste the day away, then  we'd say;
 Nothing would come be-tween  us; two dreamers.
 Father wears his Sunday best,
 Mother's tired she needs a rest, the kids  are playing up downstairs.
 Sister's sighing in her sleep,
 Brother's got a date to keep; he can't  hang around.
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street.
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our...
 Our house,  was our castle  and our keep,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street.
 Our house,  that was where  we used to meet,
 Our house, in  the middle  of our street.
