i-pod wars

I think it was in ’83 my father left the family,
But came back three weeks later for a love
both firm and stable.
I think it was in ’91 that Lee Remick died……
The sibling rivalry between my sister and
me turned into the strongest branch of our
family tree.
When I was young I dreamt of Lee Remick,
She had a ring upon each finger, she was
smiling all the while.
Her hair was just long enough so it
bounced upon her shoulders,
She said she always spoke the truth.
My Father let me down but I so easily
forgave him,
And I know the home wrecker has a place
within his heart.
I used to blame my mother for each and
every failure,
And how Lee Remick’s eyes sparkled that
brilliant blue.
He looked just like a Jonathon but he said
his name was Ashley,
He was my best friend till he drank so much
his heart sank.
And all my pretty friends who just grew up
and failed
and what if I fail? What if I’ve failed
already?
Those filthy little angels tugging at my heart
saying
‘boredom is a sin, ambition should be
everything’
