Big brother got bruised by a cannonball Made the news when he threw it down to Wichita Little brother just chews on a dirty bomb Calls the girl that works at the telethon Brothers don't bleed It's a cut of a different kind Grandpa grew trees Now the green runs through our spine Big brother builds pews out of cinderblocks Singing hymns with girl at the telethon Calls a friend when she's out taking local calls Meets him out at a bar outside of Wichita Little brother just chews on a dirt bomb Lets his brain melt away in the aftershock In the flame calls the girl at the telethon Tells her all about the bar outside of Wichita You don't start clean Spines are twisting in the rings This old tree Been around before you were born
