Two Sisters - Regina Spektor
Two sisters went to the river bend
Went too soon, they're liable to drown
Parked their cars at the edge of the town
Slipped off their gowns and went slithering down
One was the poet's love
One was the poet's love
One had a fire in her breast
One was the poet's eyes
First they wash their feet
Then they wash their hands
One went right to sleep
The other with gills and fins
One sank down like a rock
As the other one floated away
Thinking about the ticking of clocks
And what will the neighbors say?
And a neighbor said
Two sisters went to the river bend
Went too soon, they're liable to drown
Parked their cars at the edge of the town
Slipped off their gowns and went slithering down
Two sisters went to the river bend
Went too soon, they're liable to drown
Parked their cars at the edge of the town
Slipped off their gowns and went slithering down
To the river bend...
Two sisters went to the river bend
Went too soon, they're liable to drown
Parked their cars at the edge of the town
Slipped off their gowns and went slithering down
