I'm Disgusted with My Brother

I'm disgusted with my brother,
with a human being before,
I am positively sore,
I have never been so angry
he's everything detestable
that's spelled with A through Z,
he deserves to be the target
of a ten-pound bumblebee.

I'd like to wave a magic wand
and make him disappear,
or watch a wild rhinoceros
attack him from the rear,
perhaps I'll cook a pot of soup
and dump my brother in,
he forgot today's my birthday—
oh, how could he...he's my twin!
