It’s Kevin, and I am NOT home alone.
I’m in Miami with my family.
Just talked to Buzz, my brother, on the phone;
and like last year, he’s angry as can be.
I AM a brat sometimes, but Buzz is worse.
Twice now, we’ve had to leave the brute behind.
He causes trouble. Then he’ll grumble, curse,
and blame me. He is grown, but not his mind.
When we get home will he tell some wild tale?
Last year he said persistent burglars came,
but he outsmarted them. They went to jail.
While we have a fun, he’s stuck there. What a shame!
Next year will Buzz AGAIN sit home alone,
make up outrageous narratives, and moan?
Movie, Home Alone 2; character speaking, Kevin McCallister
