Have you ever been jealous of a sister or a brother
For getting more attention from your father or your mother?
Have you ever been jealous of your brother or sister
Cuz of something they got and it ain’t fair, mister?
Have you ever been jealous? The feeling’s so real
Have you ever been jealous? I know how you feel
Have you ever wanted something that you just couldn’t have?
Did you want it so much that it made you feel bad?
Have you ever wanted something that you just couldn’t get?
Did it make you upset? It’s a pretty good bet
That the feeling you had was that life is unfair
Let me tell you something, brother, I’ve been there
Chorus:
Have you ever been jealous? (Have you ever been jealous?)
Have you ever been jealous? (Have you ever been jealous?)
Have you ever been jealous? (Have you ever been jealous?)
Have you ever been jealous? I know how you feel
Have you ever had a sister or a brother who’s ill?
Have you ever wished that you could be the one with the pills?
Have you ever had a brother or a sister who’s sick?
Did you wish you could switch so you’d get more gifts?
Have you ever kinda wished you could be someone else?
I know how you feel, I’ve been there myself
Chorus
Envious, covetous, and dissatisfied
Moping around with the big green eyes
Resentful, unhappy, bitter and mean
Feeling so angry that you want to scream
Dragging around a great big gripe
Listen up sister, I know what that’s like
Chorus
