Evelyn Evelyn - A Campaign of Shock and Awe lyrics

Behold, the eighth wonder of
The natural world! Come one and come all
See the two headed girl
Stupendous! Revolting!
You’ll be shocked, you’ll be awed!
A true freak of nature, a blunder of God!
But possessing such talents
Hear them sing, see them dance
As seen in the highest
Class parlors of France
Just ten bucks a photograph
Get your seats while they last
We take Visa and MasterCard, debit or cash
Isn’t it nice that they’re being
So nice to us? If I’m not mistaken I think
They might like us
Aren’t we lucky to be here?
Stop moving, they’re taking a picture
Smile for the camera, Evelyn

Come in, come in
Must be cold out there gentlemen
Take off your coats
And just guess what the wind blew in
I know you like twins, have I got a surprise
They’re identical sisters attached
At the side just imagine the fun you could
Have with these chicklets
And they’re so well-behaved
Not a single complaint yet
Just look at these photographs
While I pour you a cocktail
I don’t know whether I should
Charge double or triple!

Isn’t it nice that they’re being
So nice to us? If I’m not mistaken I think
They might like us
Aren’t we lucky to be here?
Stop moving, they’re taking a picture
Smile for the camera, Evelyn

Ladies and gentlemen, critics and hipsters
Have you heard the new disc
By the Evelyn sisters?
Seamlessly floating with grace between
Eras and genres
They sing timeless new songs
Rife with double entendres
As featured in Rolling Stone, Spin
The New Yorker and Pitchfork (Pitchfork)
There’s an in-store appearance today
At the corner of Bedford and Seventh Ave
Some get a photograph
Sticker and autographed shirt
Isn’t it nice that they’re being
So nice to us? If I’m not mistaken I think
They might like us
Aren’t we lucky to be here?
Stop moving, they’re taking a picture
Smile for the camera, Evelyn
