"Two of a Kind"

[Bobby]Two of a kind, for your information, we're two of a kind
[Johnny] Two of a kind, it's my observation, we're two of a kind
[Bobby] Like peas in a pod
[Johnny] And birds of a feather
[Both] Alone or together, you'll find
[Both] That we are two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
[Johnny] What's so wrong thinkin' life is a song and reachin' for a star?
[Bobby] Who's to say if we're goin' the whole way? At least we got this far
[Johnny] Sharin' our lives, our vittles, and viands, we're two of an ilk
[Bobby] Say, what if we've got rare Chateaubriands or crackers and milk?
[Johnny] Makin' it plain
[Bobby] Explainin' it fully
[Both] We're similarly inclined, because we're two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a
Kind

[Brief Instrumental]

[Johnny] Two of a kind, when he's out of rhythm, I'm singin' off key
[last word IS sung off key]
[SPOKEN by Bobby] "I never heard you do that, John"
[Bobby] Hey, never you mind, 'cause I'm stickin' with 'im to C above C
[Johnny] They're easy for me
[Both] Oh, need we explain, when he warbles sweetly I'm flat and completely behind
[Both] Because we're two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
[Johnny] I get kicks when I meet the cute chicks who hang around this lad
[Bobby] And especially when they whisper to me "Hey, honey, who's your Dad?"
[Johnny] Two of a sort
[Bobby] Like two pomegranates from off the same tree
[Johnny] I'm with ya, sport, whatever you're plannin' its-a goes double with me
[SPOKEN by Bobby] "It's-a goes double with you, huh?"
[SPOKEN by Johnny] "Yeah"
[Bobby] I've got a terrible thought
[Johnny] Most frankly upsetting
[Both] And yet we are getting resigned
[Both] To being two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
[Johnny] We're two of a kind
[Both] We like workin' single or workin' in two's
[Bobby] Keep us in mind, give us a jingle, we got taps on our shoes

[Spoken by Johnny] "We'll dance!! "
[Both] We're both of us like the Tower Of Pisa
[Bobby] I'm a leaner like he's-a inclined
[Both] Because we're two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
[Both] Because we're two-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo-oo-oo, oo of a kind
