Lyrics
Okay, here's a tale of love gone wrong in a very unusual way
Your brand-new lover seems to share your disposition, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
You pose for photos in identical positions, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
Same job, same car
Much more in common than with your real wife
It's so bizarre, just like a dream except in real life
Why's she here? She just appeared
It's in the winter when the mysteries begin, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
Friends swear they've seen you at a place you've never been, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
At night, you stare into her eyes and say you love her
You're so excited to have finally found another
Just like you. Can it be true?
We're all desperately searching for that perfect match
Like jigsaw puzzle pieces asking "Where do I attach?"
But if everything lines up and there's no catch
I say beware of monsters there, whoah
So that's the suspense part of our horror story
Let's cut to the action
One fateful night, at first you can't make out her features, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
You see your own face on that shape-shifting creature, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
It's too late to scream for help. Your heart is racing
Now are you running from yourself, or are you chasing?
Who can say? 'Cause you look the same
You say she hit her head and died, and you're still golden, whoah
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
But would we know if your identity was stolen? No no
Doppelganger! Doppelganger!
If there's a lesson in this frightful tale of danger
Next time I have that much in common with a stranger
It's time to run. That's when I'm done
We're all desperately searching for that perfect match
Like jigsaw puzzle pieces asking "Where do I attach?"
But if everything lines up and there's no catch
I say beware of monsters there, whoah
Ha ha ha ha ha
