lyrics

Hippy song

You ain’t no brother of mine brother
I grew up with two and I don’t need others
You won’t want to be in my family
When you hear what I’ve got to sing
You ain’t no brother of mine brother

You ain’t no brother of mine brother
Stop singing songs about my mother
You’re a yoghurt overload
And you look a bit like a toad
You ain’t no brother of mine brother

You ain’t no sister of mine sister
If you disappeared I wouldn’t miss ya
Oh I won’t drink your hippy tea
Even if it’s good for me
You ain’t no sister of mine sister

Holding hands in circles really makes me sick
I’d like to lamp you with your talking stick
You’d better make sure that you’re aligned
Or you might get a punch in your third eye
You ain’t no brother of mine brother

I hope your tipi leaks in the rain
Because you live in Wales and not an Indian plain
You’d better learn to pay that drum
Or I’m gonna stick it up your bum
You ain’t no brother of mine brother

You ain’t no brother of mine brother
Stop singing songs about my mother
Oh what’s she ever done to you?
Murders what I’m gonna do
If you don’t stop singing songs about my mother.
