Ther - Grandma
He had a heart attack in church
And he was taken to a hospital
For a week or so
When I visited him on thursday
I was to terrified to speak
Till he told me he was comin home on the saturday
Of the following week
I don't want my dad to worry anymore
He just turned 65 he should get a reward
For being such a pal to me for all of those years
That I was so awful to him
My only father
My fallen father
My father is no longer an invincible man
My grandma lost her memory
And my mother lost her mind
Tryna keep the family together
Through that trying time
She filled out lots of paperwork
And she took a lot of real long drives
And she acted as executor
When it came that time
I wanna see my mom on a broadway stage
She's a brilliant actress at an awkward age
She's got the strength of 15 men
From the burden that she carried around then
My only mother
My faultless mother
I watched my mother lose her mother, slowly
And I just wanna spend my time at home
My brother is much smarter than
I could ever hope to be
And there is so much that he understands
At just 17
His heart's the size of jupiter
But his mouth's the size of mars
You could land a plane on that motherfucker
If you try real hard
My little brother Tim is a nervous wreck
But he's excellent company which keeps that in check
He's always got some joke hidden up his sleeve
To pull out at exactly the wrong time
I love my brother
My little brother
I love my little brother more than anyone else
