Lyrics

Two of a kind, for your information, we’re two of a kind
Two of a kind, it’s my observation, we’re two of a kind
Like peas in a pod
And birds of a feather
Alone or together, you’ll find
That we are two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
What’s so wrong thinkin' life is a song and reachin' for a star?
Who’s to say if we’re goin' the whole way? At least we got this far
Sharin' our lives, our vittles, and viands, we’re two of an ilk
Say, what if we’ve got rare Chateaubriands or crackers and milk?
Makin' it plain
Explainin' it fully
We’re similarly inclined, because we’re two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a Kind
Two of a kind, when he’s out of rhythm, I’m singin' off key
«I never heard you do that, John»
Hey, never you mind, 'cause I’m stickin' with 'im to C above C They’re easy for me Oh, need we explain, when he warbles sweetly I’m flat and completely behind
Because we’re two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
I get kicks when I meet the cute chicks who hang around this lad
And especially when they whisper to me «Hey, honey, who’s your Dad?»
Two of a sort
Like two pomegranates from off the same tree
I’m with ya, sport, whatever you’re plannin' its-a goes double with me
«It's-a goes double with you, huh?»
«Yeah»
I’ve got a terrible thought
Most frankly upsetting
And yet we are getting resigned
To being two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
We’re two of a kind
We like workin' single or workin' in two’s
Keep us in mind, give us a jingle, we got taps on our shoes
«We'll dance! «We're both of us like the Tower Of Pisa
I’m a leaner like he’s-a inclined
Because we’re two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
Because we’re two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
