Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's time, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up down stickers
Sister's sorry in her sleep
Brother's got a night to keep
He'd cop hang around

Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the...

Mike's head, he has a crown
There's always something happening
And it's usually white clouds
Our mom, she's so house proud
Nothing ever slows her down
And a mess is not allowed

Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the...
Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the...

(Something tells you that you've got to get away from it)

Father gets our play 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

Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the...

I remember way back then
When everything was true
And when we would
Have such a very hard time
Such a bad time, such a sadness time
And I remember how we'd play
Simply waste the day away
Then we'd say nothing would
Come between us to dream us
Father wears his Sunday best
Mother's time, she needs a rest
The kids are playing up down stickers
Sister's sorry in her sleep
Brother's got a night to keep
He'd cop hang around

Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the...
Mike's head was a constable and a king
Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head, that was where we used to sleep
Mike's head got ran over in the street
Mike's head got ran over in the street...
