The "official" version was released as single on May 15, 2012 with two months before the movie release and available for download.

Lyrics (Official)
We are, we are
Not your ordinary fami-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be
So it don’t matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me We got every kind of love
I feel so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don’t matter to me cause
We are, we are family
We are are-are-are-are (We are)
We are are-are-are-are (We are)
We are are-are-are-are (We are)
We are, we are
Family, family, family
We are, we are
Family
So what?
We don’t look, we don’t act
We don’t walk, we don’t talk
Like you do
So what?
If we hang just a hang and no shame
We both do what we want to
'Cause we come from everywhere
Searching for ones to care
Somehow we found it here
We found us a home
We are, we are
Not your ordinary fami-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be
So it don’t matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me
We got every kind of love
I feel so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don’t matter to me cause
We are, we are family
Okay, so the links in our chains makes us strange
But really they make us stronger
And no one would replace not a thing
Mother or father
'Cause we…
'Cause we come from everywhere
Searching for ones to care
Somehow we found it here
We found us a home
We are, we are
Not your ordinary fami-mily
But we can all agree that
We are, we are
Close as close can be
So it don’t matter what it looks like
We look perfect to me
We got every kind of love
I feel so lucky indeed
They can keep on talking
It don’t matter to me cause
We are, we are family
(Family)
(We are, we are)
We are, we are family
