What Brothers Do Songtext
von Anthony Smith

He said "Hi, my name is Timmy
And I′m pushin' five years old
I can count to this many
Then I′ll have to use my toes
Sure am glad to meet ya
Let me show ya stuff
That only big boys know"

"Now nickels might be bigger
But dimes are worth the most
Santa's always in the mall
But he lives at the North Pole
Kid, stick with me and you'll go far
′Cause I′ll show you the ropes"

'Cause in all these years
I′ve learned many things
How to walk, how to talk
And make believe
So follow me


Notebook paper makes
A handy stealth fighter
And for fast getaways
We'll take my Radio Flyer
And there′s Indians in the woods
Just off the porch out back
And if they attack
I'll help you fight ′em

With sticks for guns
Me and you
'Til we've won
′Cause that′s what brothers do

"Momma said that you're the reason
Her belly got so big
And I didn′t believe her
Until she let me feel you kick
And I don't know how it happened
I′m just glad that I have someone to play with"

'Cause in all these years
I′ve learned many things
How to walk, how to talk
And make believe
So follow me


Notebook paper makes
A handy stealth fighter
And for fast getaways
We'll take my Radio Flyer
And there's Indians in the woods
Just off the porch out back
And if they attack
I′ll help you fight ′em

With sticks for guns
Me and you
'Til we′ve won
'Cause that′s what brothers do

We'll play cops and robbers
And secret agent men
And to save the world
From hostile aliens
With sticks for guns
Me and you
′Til we've won
'Cause that′s what brothers do
That′s what brothers do
He said "Hi, my name is Timmy
And I'm pushin′ five years old"
