    Today’s song lyric is for Unrelated, the fourth track on Better Than Wages. You can download the entire song from the link on the right hand side.

    My brother is a gourmet microwave cook

    I’m a credit card trickster

    we never shared the same room

    or even home

    and the blood in our veins

    is unrelated

    My brother speaks the language

    of machines and crooks

    I have lesbian hands

    that like to touch each other

    we never shared the same bed

    or even a table

    we have rules for the bathroom

    cause we’re so unrelated

    unrelated

    unrelated

    unrelated

    On our first date he speaks of only himself

    and I don’t even mind

    I’m so mesmerized by the way he says

    his name like he was

    in love with himself

    unrelated

    unrelated

    unrelated

    My brother shakes the hands of important men

    while the look on his face

    is so 1951

    makes you wanna trust him

    makes me wanna love him

    but what can I do when we’re so

    unrelated
