There's a couple of other theories, too:
1. That it's from when they'd take your belt off you when you went to jail - I've been to jail - don't mess.

2. That you always get your older, bigger brother's hand-me-downs - we're from the rough side of town and I've got a bigger brother - don't mess.

3. I'm such a rebel,
I've told mummy that I'm old enough to dress myself in the mornings, but haven't got the hang of it yet.
