letra de two pals in harmony - live - richard stilgoe

Loading...

we’re two of a kind
we’re bosom buddies
we’re of the same mind
we’re thick as blood is
the ladies feel fine
no fuddy-duddies
we’re two pals in harmony

we’re brothers in arms
we share the same pillow
no quarrels or qualms at
each peccadillo
like sunday and psalms
or like waring & gillow
we’re two pals in harmony

if i sing an a flat
he sings a c
if i transpose then
he follows me
when we end up in quite the wrong key
what brings us back?
harmony

like tonics and gins
or wines and cheeses
when a cold he begins
i sneezes
like celestial twins
or siameses
we’re two pals in harmony
we’ve rare sophistication and
tremendous panache
we have coordination and
considerable dash
the sky’s our destination when the headline tells the nation
it’s a smash, it’s a smash, it’s a smash, smash, smash

skellern
i play the bass and

stilgoe
i play the high notes

skellern
i set the pace and

stilgoe
i just let fly notes

both
it sure sounds ace with
his and my notes
two pals in harmony

[spoken over instrumental break]
skellern
what are you doing?

stilgoe
what key’s this in?

skellern
f sharp

stilgoe
i can’t do f sharp. it’s got black notes
you’ll have to go up one

skellern
oh, all right

stilgoe
right?

both
change… now!

[pause]

skellern
it’s horrendous
stilgoe
you’ve got this tuned, haven’t you?

skellern
no?

stilgoe
you’re supposed to get both pianos tuned before we start
if you don’t get both pianos tuned before we start, there’s absolutely no point doing the show

[end of instrumental break]

both
we play as one
in perfect concord
once we’ve begun
there’s not a wrong chord
and it’s such fun
we’re always encored
two pals in harmony

if i sing an a flat
he sings a c
if i transpose then
he follows me
when we end up in quite the wrong key
what brings us back?
harmony

you speak in one breath
of joseph and mary
of rahm[?] and macbeth
of cat and canary
together till death
like mozart and salieri
we’re two pals in perfect harmony

[applause]
