Pretty Little Things

My brother Shane
 Used to play on the lacrosse team
 He was the MVP
 Shane's silver number nine
 He was the captain
 And no one was quite as proud as me
 
 And when they won
 Which they did a lot
 He got these pretty little things
 These championship rings
 And he had fun
 At least that's what we thought
 He got those pretty little things
 To last forever

 My brother Shane
 Was not a slacker in the least
 He was also captain of debate
 My brother Shane
 Was a straight-A student
 He kept a lot there on his plate
 And when he won
 Which he did a lot
 He got these pretty little things
 Pretty little things
 And he had fun
 Well, sometimes, maybe not
 But he had those pretty little things
 Those trophies
 To last forever
 And ever
 And ever
 But now he's gone
 He took a joyride down a slippery road
 He's gone forever
 And those pretty little things
 Are the only goddamn things
 That we can remember him by
 I still remember the day
 That curved road took him away
 Without a chance
 To say
 Goodbye
 Pretty
 People always call me pretty
 Not funny, not smart
 Just pretty
 And isn't it the biggest pity
 That she'll never be her brother?
 ♪
 And they're right
 I'll never be my brother
 
 I'll never win
 Like he did all the time
 He got those pretty little things
 Those pretty little things
 To my chagrin
 I'm just a cheerleader
 Almost past her prime
 I'm just a pretty little thing
 And that's what I'll always be
 Forever
 And ever
 And ever
