My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop
My sister and I were headed straight for the top
My sister and I earned a thou a week at least
Oh, yeah
But my sister is now, unfortunately, deceased
I know it's sad, of course
But a fact is still a fact
And now all that remains
Is the remains
Of a perfect double act
Watch this
Now you have to imagine
This with two people
It's swell with two people
First I'd...
Then she'd...
Then we'd...
But I can't do it alone
Then she'd...
Then I'd...
Then we'd...
But I can't do it alone
She'd say, what's your sister like?
I'd say, men
She'd say, you're the cat's meow
Then we'd wow the crowd again
When she'd go...
I'd go...
We'd go...
Then those ding-dong daddies started to roar
Whistled, stomped and stamped on the floor
Yelling, screaming, begging for more
And we'd say, o.k. fellas, keep your socks up
You ain't seen nothin' yet
But I simply cannot do it alone
So what do ya' think?
Come on, you can say...
I know you're right
The first part's sh-t
But the second part, the second part is really nifty
O.k.
She'd go...
I'd go...
We'd go...
And then those two-bit johnnies did it up brown
To cheer the best attraction in town
They nearly tore the balcony down
And we'd say. o.k. boys
We're goin' home, but before we go
Here's a few more partin' shots
And this, this we did in perfect unison
Now, you've seen me goin' through it
You may think there's nothin' to it
But I simply cannot do it
Alone
