verse 1:
You always did everything after me
I was the one carrying responsibilities
Our skates were sharpened
If you were tired, you rested on the players' bench
We grew up and moved to Oulunkylä*
We stole apples from the neighbor
Rivaling from dawn to eve
There was no day when our feelings didn't rise up
We didn't know how to talk
That wasn't considered strength here
You loaned my shirt
We had to fight just for dad's attention
Though we were different
We always wondered where to get the next games
We took turns in coming home crying
You snitched when I stole cigarettes
When we went out to party
The Black Maria brought us home
We went and did at the roads
Never learned anything by getting
pre-chorus 1:
So many dreams that we came to pick
I've got many bros but only one little brother
chorus:
Be always my little brother and a bird
Never man up
I don't want any other adults in this household
Be always my little brother and a bird
Never man up
I don't want any other adults in this household
verse 2:
I got attention in the music scene
Took all the attention at family reunions
You were my driver for a tour
Laying in bed, hurting when we went to the gy
Until our roads parted again
And my head just went crazy from all of this
We were drunk and beat the shit out of each other
Why is this so hard even as adults
I always supported your plans
Though the years have been rougher
Around Finland three hundred kilometers an hour
I learned that money doesn't bring you happiness
You've had to bear some shit because of me
Still I will prevent from doing it until the end
You were freezing on the steps
I was afraid that you were severely depressed
You were tender and fragile
You made me feel like I got it all
It's sad to think about how we grew up
I know you can take care of yourself some day
pre-chorus 2:
So many dreams that we came to pick
I've got many bros but only one fucking brother
chorus:
Be always my little brother and a bird
Never man up
I don't want any other adults in this household
Be always my little brother and a bird
Never man up
I don't want any other adults in this household
chorus:
I don't want any other adults in this household
