Someone thought it would be a good idea
To have my cousin Mina stay for the summer
Perfect, beautiful Mina
Full of charm and allure
An angel in my parent’s eyes
A witch in my own
She turned my friends against me
Stole my parents from me
Got my crush’s attention
Whenever we go out to hang
I’m always in the back, forgotten
It’s okay
I tell my reflection in the bathroom of the movie theater
After they ditched me
Because you’re cool
You’re too cool for fakers like them
I strike a pose
Look how cool I am!
It’s no wonder I attracted such flies for friends
They are so dead to me
All of them, every last one!
Anyone who can’t resist Mina’s charm
Isn’t true
And when she left
The spell broke
And they all came back to me
Like flies drawn to shit
The prodigal son
And karma
And you know what I did?
I held up my hand to their faces
And told them that I wasn’t here
They’d have to leave a message after the (finger)beep
