Lyrics: Many people know that Jenny and David
had twins because of their group name "Two of a Kind". David
wanted to write a song for Ari & Jason to sing about being twins,
exploring the pros and the cons.
(Chorus:)
Yeah, we’re twins - we’re alike but not the same
Yeah, we’re twins - you might have to guess our names
(Jason:)
It’s great to be a twin - we’re never ever lonely
We’ve always got a friend at home
But there are days when I need my own space
Sometimes I want to be left alone -
(Chorus)
(Ari:)
Since we’re the same age, we like to play together
We do the same activities
The friends of one become the friends of the other
We have so many compatibilities -
(Chorus)
(Bridge 1:)
(Ari:) Sometimes, people are annoying
and we wish they’d just go away
(Jason:) They’re always asking us "Who was born first?"
(both:) "What’s the difference?", we say, "we were born the same day!"
(Chorus - Instrumental)
(Ari:) Remember that time when we dressed alike at school?
Confusing people can be fun
(Jason:) My teacher saw you in the hall and called you over
She didn’t realize you were "the other one"!
(Chorus)
(Jason:) Some people think that we’re the same person
(Ari:) To them, we’re look-alike freaks
(Jason:) But I’m the only one who thinks just like me
(Ari:) If you look deeper, you’ll see that I’m unique
(Chorus)
(Bridge 2:)
(Jason:) Sometimes, people are annoying
and we wish they would go away
(Ari:) Some people ask us "Which one’s smarter?"
(both:) But we’re both too smart to say
(Final Chorus:)
Yeah, we’re twins
and we think it’s obvious
so please, don’t ask us if
We’re twins, we’re twins
We were both born on one date
from one egg that separated
and created twins!
(Chorus:)
Yeah, we’re twins - we’re alike but not the same
Yeah, we’re twins - you might have to guess our names
(Jason:)
It’s great to be a twin - we’re never ever lonely
We’ve always got a friend at home
But there are days when I need my own space
Sometimes I want to be left alone -
(Chorus)
(Ari:)
Since we’re the same age, we like to play together
We do the same activities
The friends of one become the friends of the other
We have so many compatibilities -
