I couldn’t beat you in anything
You were always miles ahead
And whenever you lied
They believed what you said
When I tried to help in the kitchen
You kept me lame
You shooed me away
It was your domain
Everyone loved you
Without exception
You had the charm of the devil
From the inception
I bigged you up
You kept me down
You were the class
I was the clown
I wanted to please you
Didn’t need anything more
Requited love
Is what I always hoped for
When you were hurting
All I did was cry
When it was the other way round
Your eyes were dry
You never wept for me
In all of your years
I beat you in something
I beat you in tears.
