Little Sister Blues
the younger sister means always the last to get
they say its middle child syndrome but I'm the youngest yet
the baby of the family treated like a fool
smothered yet ignored following the rules
my older sibling ignore me for the majority of the time
but when they turn there attention i sure do pay for that crime
simple things like walking past and smacking the back of my head
with the parting shot following the lines "i do wish you were dead"
My parents are no better for all they see is the money sign
a nuisance that occurred when there life intertwined
beaten down and left alone is this what the fates had planned?
answer me! Damn it! Answer me I demand!
So I guess what I'm feeling is little sister blues
forced to pay for others crimes until I'm old news
I just have to wait for the final song
when I can spread my wings and finally be gone
