Lyrics for My Evil Twin

My evil twin, bad weather friend He always wants to start when I want to begin* It scares me so, like I scare myself With that book of Nostradamus up upon my shelf Playing hangman 'til the morning light Doing doughnuts on the neighbor's lawn Then sleep all through the day, get up and start again I can hear some sirens somewhere but I don't know why My evil twin runs home again Search lights look for an alibi, but I'll be home by then Here he comes again, my evil twin My friends have seen him hiding underneath my skin Who cut the arm off the voodoo doll That resembles a Republican president from long ago I'd hate to see you leave 'Cause I have grown so grateful for the Blame you save me from My twin My twin My twin (My twin) I know he looks like me (My twin) Hates work like me and walks like me (My twin) He's even got a twin like me My evil twin, bad weather friend I know some day I'll meet him But I don't know where or when
