Girl Power

I'm worried about my brother,
He likes to brush my hair,
He plays with my pink nail polish,
And tries on my clothes when I'm no there.

He sings in the shower,
To Britney and Avril Lavigne,
He wanted his white t-shirts pink,
So he put his red hat in the washing machine.

He cares about the environment,
And tends to stay out of strife,
But this is why I think,
He's going to go far in life.

Even though he's into fairies,
While the other kids skate and swear,
He's the one with the intelligence,
My brother is a square.
