Big Brother lyrics

These are the clothes that my big brother wore

And his elder brother and his brother before

These are the short pants which reach to the floor

For I'm much much shorter than the brother before

This is the hat that he no longer wears

For he has big brothers and now he wears theirs

And the socks I put on are in non-matching pairs

And the jumpers have sleeves full of patches and tears

Yes, this is the sole of my brother's shoe

His big brother wore it and his brother too

And my mum said "My girl, I shall give it to you

It's an honour to walk in your big brother's shoe"

These are the clothes that no rag man would buy

With holes that have holes through which seagulls could fly

But I wear them and wish it was not always I

Who's the youngest young sister and the smallest small fry

The smallest small fry
