"I don't know about sibling rivalry, but this is a better song than anything my brother has written!"

lyrics

George is My Brother
Lyrics by Tom Toles

George is my brother Him and not no other

He told me about Peter Pan
And took me off to Neverland
He led me into the night sky
puersuaded me that we could fly
But he also liked to hold me down
And pummel me into the ground
And tho I did look up to him
He would tear me limb from limb

George is my brother
Him and not no other
We share nothing other
Than the same dad and mother

I would show him something, he would say
That it's no good so go away
I'd fix it and come back again
But he would be long gone by then
He'd tell me when I'd worked some more
It was better the way it was before
I never was quite good enough
And that is how he made me tough

George is my brother
Him and not no other
Never had no sister
And God, how I've missed her

Time slides away on winter sled
Visions of Rosebud in my head
The pot of rainbow gold he sold me
Was the passageway that the Spectrum told me

We fought like brothers in a fable
He was Cain, I was unAbel
He was not his brother's keeper
He was more like my very own grim reaper
Never-ending everland of quibbling rivalry
Nevermore and evermore of sibling survivalry
Ever grow up? Well chances are slim
But if we ever do I want to be like him

George is my brother George is my brother
George is my brother George is my brother
