"Family Reunion" is a 36 second song by blink-182 consisting mostly of profanity. Clearly inspired by the 10 word version of George Carlin's Seven Words You Can Never Say, the band has been playing the song since their Cheshire Cat days.
The song was recorded in the studio for Short Music for Short People, an album released in 1999 for Fat Wreck Chords and appears on the band's live album, released in 2000, The Mark, Tom, and Travis Show: The Enema Strikes Back.
The only words that are not 'profanities' are 'and', 'my', 'too', 'I', 'your', 'dad', 'mom' and the entire last line; although in some circles the words 'fart', 'suck' and 'turd' may only be considered minorly offensive and not actual profanities.
In some music stores such as Music World and HMV, the song is completely removed in the listening booths while other songs remain intact because of the offensive terms.
