Lyrics with picturesI can tell we got an awful lot in common Even though we look as different as can be We don't even have to try To see things eye to eye It just comes to us naturally Come to think of it I think we fit together Playing cat and mouse won't get us very far There's no need to feud and fuss When it isn't really us Let's you and me Be who we are We're a duo A duo, a pair of lonely ones Who were meant to be a two-o A duo It's true-o Wherever we go We're going me and you Oh, no matter what Now we've got one another
We'll be there to pick each other off the floor
Any time you're feeling glum Count on me to be your chum If you get an itch attack I'll be there to scratch your back Now who could ever ask for more TIGER [speaking]: Oh oh oh, stop! Oh, stop! No! Don't! Don't stop! More! More! FIEVEL MOUSEKEWITZ AND TIGER [singing]: We're friends and that's what friends are for We're a duo A duo A pair of lonely ones Who were meant to be a two-o A duo It's true-o If we're ever in a stew We know we can make it through Cause you've got me And I got Your Yes, sir! |
