Virginia and Patricia

I should not keep going on about these two I met last night
One is deep and one is light
One is pretty, one is bright
Virginia and Patricia
Patricia and Virginia
Careless loping curls
Clever, clever girls

Don’t get too close, they’ll skin ya
If’ you’re in luck they’ll spin ya
They cannot help but win, ya with
Patricia and Virginia–
Virginia and Patricia
Patricia and Virginia
Someone knew exactly what to do
When they invented you

The seconds start to spin and even hours start to fly
The something that’s between them isn‘t something you can buy
You want to hold them to you but the moment that you try–
It’s been a lovely evening, then a kiss and then goodbye

They play like little children
They fight like little children
They flirt like Mae West though
And one has eyes like Bardot
I wonder how they love though
I wonder how they love though
I wonder how they love though

Virginia and Patricia
Patricia and Virginia
Virginia and Patricia
Patricia and Virginia
