I'm making my brother my personal slave1,
so now when I greet you my brother will wave.
He'll do all my homework; he'll take all my tests.
He'll clean up my messes and wait on my guests.
He'll hold out my hanky whenever I sneeze.
He'll say that he did it if I "cut the cheese."
He'll go take a bath if I play in the dirt.
He'll eat all my spinach2, then feed me dessert.
He'll empty the garbage and vacuum3 the floors
and finish my other unsavory chores,
like washing the dishes and mowing4 the yard
or anything else even modestly hard.
I really enjoy all the effort I save
by making my brother my personal slave.
And though I'll admit how exciting it is,
I'm not sure it's worth it, 'cause next week I'm his.
