My Sister
Hey, does anybody remember this song? This one takes me back to Freshman year of High School singing in my best friend's living room. There was also a "girl" song that came out around the same time as this one that had a pretty high part (at least that's the way I remember it.). For the life of me, I can't remember what it is. It's on the tip of my brain. Help!

My sister... my sister... my sister.
I hate my sister, she’s such a bitch.
She acts as if she doesn’t even know that I exist.
But I would do anything to let her know I care.
But I am only talking to myself ’cos she isn’t there.
My sister, I love my sister, she’s the best.
She’s cooler than any other girl that I have ever met.
She had the greatest band, she had the greatest guy.
She’s good at everything and doesn’t even try.
She’s got a wall around her nobody can climb.
She lets her ladder down for those who really shine.
I tried to scale it, but to me she’s blind.
So I lit a firecracker, went off in my eye.
I miss my sister, why’d she go ?
She’s the one who would have taken meTo my first all-ages show.
It was the violent femmes and the del fuegos,Before they had a record out.
before they went gold,And started to grow.
I miss my sister. I miss my sister.
I miss my sister. I really miss her.
So, that's a peak into my adolescent years along with a lot of Madonna and Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit. Isn't it funny how some songs will always remind you of a certain time in your life no matter when you hear it again?

I swear that it was on the radio- that's the only way I would have known it back then.
BTW: the song I couldn't remember was Stay by Shakespear's Sister. Does anyone remember that one or was I on another planet?
