Have you studied your family history?
    Have you built up your family tree?
Of course there are other relations 
     Who're looking for you and for me.

​

I’ve found that a far removed cousin
    Was an Earl from the Isle of Wight.
Their daughter in law, though divorced now,
    Had a father, a very rich knight.

​

The daughter of grandmama's uncle 
      Fell in love with a sportsman in Spain;
Then they both went to live in Jamaica
    And neither were heard of again.

​

My grandfather's long lost relation
     Was transported for stealing a cow,
But it seems he was very productive
     For we’ve hundreds more relatives now.

​

Family history can be quite absorbing:
    It can bring you some laughs to your life -
Or you could hit on something disturbing:
     Your lost cousin is also your wife.
