Once, I had an aunt named Circe
Ethel Ann was her best friend
She was solemn and uncertain
Once the whispering began
They were always seen together
Buying shoes and new houseplants
No one even thought about it
Till she hit the handyman

Everybody wants it
Everybody cares
Everybody wants it
So bad
That they come in pairs

Once, I had an aunt named Circe
Ethel Ann was her best friend
She was solemn and uncertain
Once the whispering began
They were always seen together
Buying shoes and new houseplants
No one even thought about it
Till she hit the handyman

[Instrumental Break]
Everybody wants it
Everybody cares
Everybody wants it
So bad
That they come in pairs
