I have a horrid brother, Tim

I’d really like to smother him

and feed his nasty body to the dog

 

He flicks his bogies in my hair

he makes me cry and doesn’t care

and once he flushed my head right down the bog

 

But now I’m gonna pay him back

the best form of defence: attack

and when I’m done he’ll wish that he was dead

 

I’ll fill his pants with superglue

and hide some dog-muck in his shoe

and then I’ll tell his friends he wets the bed

 

BUT

 

Nothing happened as I planned it

for my mum caught me red-handed

and in my panic everything went wrong

 

Now I’m covered in the superglue

all mixed up with the doggy poo

oh what an icky, yicky, sticky pong!

 

Do I have to write a moral?

I suppose I really ought

if you do something immoral

just ensure you don’t get caught!
