Purple Nurple

A purple nurple hurts like hell
Leaves a bruise that makes you yell
Big brother thinks its so funny
You beg him to stop and offer him money

He doesn't care a single inch
He's not letting go of that devastating pinch
You turn and squirm and cant break free
And that bully is grinning with glee

You scream and cry to your mother
All she says is, "don't pester your brother"
You look and see brother laughing at you
Because he knows there is nothing you can do

Painfully funny, Timothy. Superbly penned and reading this, I am so very happy that I never had a big brother!

G'day Timothy … is the purple nurple related to the yabby and lobster. They leave the same signature - Lindsay
