Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The day that your brother started to talk
Was the day that I found you like that
The national child star in a coat and a scarf
Alone in the laundromat
[Verse 2]
Now we've got the keys to an apartment we share
And we stay up as late as we like
Like K-Ci and Jojo, like Sonny and Cher
You're Tina but I'm not Ike
[Verse 3]
So tell me what's, tell me what's your favourite colour?
Tell me your favourite colour?
Tell me how's, tell me how's your younger brother?
What grade's he in?
[Verse 4]
Go back to the rooftops of the homes in your town
Your brother had started to say
Go back to the rooftops and kick the shingles down
'Cause the days and the nights are the same
And the weather complains
[Verse 5]
Ah, the least you could do is try and act surprised
Try and act alright
But you're here for the chase
And next year is a ways away
[Verse 6]
So tell me what's, tell m what's your favourite colour?
Tell me your favourite colour?
Tell me how's, tell me how's your younger brother?
How's your younger brother?
Tell me what's the first, very first record you owned?
'Cause I've got no plans if you don't
No plans if you don't
[Verse 7]
Seven, eight
[Verse 8]
Tell me what's, tell m what's your favourite colour?
Tell me your favourite colour?
Tell me how's, tell me how's your younger brother?
How's your younger brother?
Tell me what's the first, very first record you owned?
'Cause I've got no plans if you don't
No plans if you don't
[Verse 9]
(Okay, done with it)
