For your brother
You still argue about who started it, whatever it was. Happy birthday, with his name in the hook.
A birthday song for your brother, from the one who knows the real stories
Brothers say thanks with an insult and love with a dare. Give us the stories you both still argue about and the song does the sincere part for you.
Hear the second a name lands
Marcus, it's your birthday, let's celebrate the day,
You wrote“He calls everyone "bro-ski", even his grandma.”
The song singsYou call everybody bro-ski, Marcus, rolling down the street,
From a real song made here: “The Best Driver in the Passenger Seat”, for Marcus, from what his best friend typed.
The moment you give it
You drop it in the chat with your other siblings. The song tells the story he swears is exaggerated, the whole family takes your side, and he replays it just to argue with the second verse.
Sibling chat, his birthday, noon

Staying on the right side of sincere
Brothers can take one serious line, maybe two. Put the teasing up front and save the line about how proud you are for last, so the second verse catches him off guard.
Sound and voice
A male voice makes it sound like a brother singing; a female voice can be funnier if his sister is the one giving it.
| If he listens to | Pick |
|---|---|
| country or classic rock | Country |
| hip-hop | Hip-hop / rap |
| R&B and slow jams | R&B / soul |
| anything loud at the gym | Upbeat pop |
| old records and folk | Indie folk |
For example
A sister writing for her brother might type: he locked me out of the treehouse for an entire summer; he drove four hours to help me move and complained the whole way; he became the calmest dad I know. That mix of teasing and respect is exactly what a brother can stand to hear, and the last line gives the chorus its warmth.
