Identical Twin Sisters
Two identical twin sisters, Mary and Sue
Wiggled their way to maturity
As twin sisters often do
Passed notes in K-5, then their
Grades took a dive, in high school
Which they slept through
More dead than alive
So to community college they went
Part of a big tent of immigrants
Flunk-outs and folks who rent
There they shaped up, earning all A's
Entered the 'Big U' at the end of the day
Where all their friends were bi, trans or gay
But they managed their courses to pass
And swish-boom-bang-fast
They got married and each had two kids
When as so often happens to sister twins
They wondered with silly grins
"What kind of pickle have we put ourselves in?"
We really aren't happy, and our hubbies are sappy
Our kids wear us out, all their pissing, so crappy
We don't even know if we're straight or we're gay
"We'd better start over,"
That's what they said
So that's what they did
Passing notes to each other
As sister twins identical often do
~ Oh, brother!
