my brother's beatles records

sometimes I miss the childhood of
my brother's beatles records
the best friend a kid could ever have
everything was perfect on
my brother's beatles records
the rest of my life was fuckin' bad

          adults would not talk to me
          girls would not walk with me
          well, I ain't dumb
          it's plain to see
          I'm a failure with no worth
          I'm the scrum of the earth
          at the moment of my birth
          my parents should have drowned me

but thank God I stumbled upon
my brother's beatles records
the songs that I always loved so well
it's a good thing that I listened to
my brother's beatles records
the rest of my life was a living hell

          everyone would shout at me
          nobody would hang out with me
          everybody doubted me
          so I learned to doubt myself
          I did the job for everyone else
          you know what I felt
          my parents should have drowned me
          when I escaped my mother's womb
          it's too damn bad they found me

but I'm so fuckin' glad I got to hear
my brother's beatles records
plus the greatest hits
of the dave clark five
I owe everything
to my brother's beatles records
they're the only reason why I stayed alive
