Testi

[Intro]
Ladies and gentlemen, Ms. Velma Kelly in an act of desperation
[Verse 1]
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
[Bridge]
Watch this
Now, you have to imagine it with two people
It's swell with two people
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
When she'd go—
I'd go—
We'd go—
Then those ding-dong daddies started to roar
Whistled, stomped, stamped on the floor
Yelling, screamin', beggin' for more
[Bridge]
And we'd say, "Okay, fellas, keep your socks up 'cause you ain't seen nothin' yet"
[Verse 5]
But I simply cannot do it alone
[Bridge]
So what do you think, huh?
Come on, you can say
I know, you're right, the first part's shit
But the second part, the second part is really nifty
Okay
[Verse 6]
She'd go—
I'd go—
And we'd go—
And then those two-bit Johnnys did it up brown
To cheer the best attraction in town
They nearly tore the balcony down
[Bridge]
And we'd say, "Okay boys, we're goin' home, but before we go, here's a few more partin' shots"
And this, this we did in perfect unison
[Outro]
Now you see me going through it
You may think there's nothing to it
But I simply cannot do it alone
