[B] [C#m] [F#m] The smell of a carrot, [E] of desperation.
My sister and I had an [B] act that couldn't flop.
[A] My sister and [E] I were headed [B] straight for the top.
My sister and [E] I earned a [D#m] vow.
A week at [E] least.
Oh yeah.
[A] But my sister is now [C#m] unfortunately deceased.
[A] [F#m] I know it's sad of [B] course, but a fact [E] is still a fact.
[C#] And now all that [F#] remains is [Bm] the remains of a perfect [B] double act.
[F]
Watch [A#] this.
Now you have to imagine it with two people.
It's swell [F] with two people.
[A#] First I.
[F#] Then she.
Then [A#]
we.
[G] But [A#] I can't do it alone. Then she'd.
[F#] Then I'd.
[A#] Then we'd.
[Dm] [F] But I [A#] can't do it alone.
[D#] She'd [A#] say, what's your sister like?
I'd say, man.
She'd say, [C] you're the catfield [D#] and we'd.
[F]
[A#] And when she'd go.
[F#]
I'd go.
[A#] We'd go.
[C] Then those ding dong [F] daddies started to roar.
[G] Whistle stomped, stamped on the floor.
[C] Yelling, screaming, [G] begging for more.
[C] We'd say, okay fellas.
[D] Keep your socks up.
Because you ain't seen [Dm] nothing [F] yet.
[A#] [C#m] [A#]
[F#] [A#] [C] [Gm]
[F] [A#] So [Cm] what do you think?
[A#] Come on, you can say.
[F]
[Cm] [A#] [Cm] [B] I know you're right.
The first [C#m] part's shit.

The second part is [B] really nifty.
[C#m] Okay.
[F#] She'd go.
[B] [G] I'd go.
[G] [Dm]
[B] We'd.
[D#] [C]
[D#] [B] [F]
[B] [C#] And then those [Fm] two big johnnies did a [B] frown.
Cheering the best attraction in town.
[C#] They nearly saw that I'd get eaten.
[F#] And we'd say, okay boys.
[C#] We're going [D#m] home.
But before we go.
Here's a [G#m] few more [F#] parting shots.
[C#] And this.
This we did in perfect unison.
[D] [B] You may [F#]
[B] [F#] [B] [F#]
[A#] see me going.
[F#] You may [F#] think [A#] there's nothing to it.
