Two of Me

There are two of me out running loose
One that tries to do what's right
While the other acts the fool
It's been that way from the beginning 
A smorgasbord of who is who
With the two of me out running loose 

There are two of me with nothing new
One that says yes I can
With the other never sure what to do
While one is often called the winner
The other is bound to lose
With the two of me there's nothing new

There are two of me feel free to choose
The one that's made to play it straight
Or the other, cannon loose
You can clearly see the difference
There's no need for a clue
With the two of me feel free to choose

There are two of me and one of you...
