lyrics

Seven years apart has sometimes seemed too much
November 1990 Girl, seven years and three months head start
Picture of your car and our grandma, three of us in purple and in blue
You were standing on the threshold of life and I was stuck in the doorway of youth

You are the first born and golden daughter, how you shine
November 1990 Girl, you left everybody else behind
You were the first one ever to sing and the first one ever to cry
and the best one ever to be. Is there anybody else so bright?

Not quite.

It's a hald-mad-at-you, seemingly inadequate feeling that I get by your side
and I know it's not right
It's a hald-mad-at-you, seemingly inadequate feeling that I get by your side
and I know it's not one bit right, because we're sisters you and I

I will always be the baby sister, I will never be oldest it's true
Even though I'm four inches taller, I'll always be looking up to you
November 1990 Girl, I can never quite catch up to you
A January Ninety-Eighter, could never quite match up to you

Well it's a hald-mad-at-you, seemingly inadequate feeling that I get by your side
and I know it's not right
I get half-mad at you when I compare myself to you (I know I shouldn't, but I do)
and that's a bad, bad move, because we're sisters me and you

November 1990 Girl

And when two decades were breached you went beyond my reach
Now I've been left behind, I feel I've left your mind
As a younger sister grows a younger sister hopes
that her older sister knows how much I love her so

Making and performing on Whadjuk Noongar boodjar. Sovereignty was never ceded.

Melancholy-folk that makes the Perth mundane sound somewhat poetic.
