My Best Friend Words and Music by Bill Pere

My sister is my best friend
When I make mistakes, she forgives me
My sister is my best friend
I know we'll be friends forever to the end...

We were out eating Big Belly Burgers
I made the ketchup squirt on her brand new clothes
She didn't yell, and she didn't scream
She smiled when she shoved the bun up my nose...

My brother is my best friend
When I make mistakes, he forgives me
My brother is my best friend
I know we'll be friends forever to the end...

I know it wasn't his fault
That he spilled mustard and sugar and salt in my hair
I was happy to bring him a nice ice cube...
When he found the pepper in his underwear...

My sister is my best friend
When I make mistakes, she forgives me
My sister is my best friend
I know we'll be friends forever to the end...

I didn't know it was fresh poison ivy
When I gave her those flowers, but her face will soon clear up
That night she helped me pick all the feathers off my back
When somehow my bed got filled with warm maple syrup

My brother is my best friend
When I make mistakes, he forgives me
My brother is my best friend
I know we'll be friends forever to the end...

I entered his name in a contest
For the “School's Biggest Nerd” and he won the event.
He was happy to bake me some nice cupcakes
Instead of icing, he used wet cement...
