peter's song

tomorrow's my second anniversary at work
and i hate my job
and joanie isn't ready for commitment
and i'm allergic to her dog
so i talk it out with peter and susan
and pete says i should write a song
about what a great little brother i have
so this is peter's song

now, peter's my youngest brother
he's the happy one of the family
except when he's on the phone with one of us
and all our codependencies
he says he just had another big fight with mom
he's upset 'cause he got sucked in
still, he asks me if i'm o.k.
so this one's for him

seems like all my friends are dying
from AIDS and age, then they're gone
don has pneumocystis again
helen was ninety one
peter's always there when i need him
he really deserves his own song
it's not his fault things are fucked right now
at least he gets a song
this is peter's song
he better like his song
