Hank Green - Brigid and Samantha lyrics

They were at each other's throats
Before they were weaned
And for years these girls
They plotted and schemed
Always working for each other's destruction
Seeing each other was nothing more
Than an obstruction learning martial arts
To kick Brigid's face in
Brigid fighting back with intimidation
And no one will forget the death-ending flack
Of another of Samantha's broomstick attacks

They had an Earth Day birthday in 1989
In four thoughtful minutes Brigid
Was an only child
But then Samantha came along and
Brigid start to cry
Because she had to deal with her
The rest of her life
Yeah, she had to deal with her
The rest of her life
But then as they grew, something changed
Verbal sparring was the new shooting range
And as they laughed, they realized
Maybe this twin thing was
A blessing in disguise
But now Samantha is attending Arcadia
A small university in Pennsylvania
And Brigid is in school in New Jersey
Of course they miss each other like crazy

They had an Earth Day birthday in 1989
In four thoughtful minutes Brigid
Was an only child
But then Samantha came along and
Brigid start to cry
Because she had to deal with her
The rest of her life
Yeah, she had to deal with her
The rest of her life
And they were best friends for
The rest of their lives
Yeah, they were best friends for
The rest of their lives
