Henry Gross
In the Court of the Two Sisters
Met Yvette on a jet down to Metairie
She was Tweedle Dum, I was Tweedle Dee
Told her she'd be the only girl in the world for me
Met Claire at a fair in Jackson Square
True blue eyes and dark brown hair
Promised her then and there we'd always be a pair
It never crossed my mind all the time we dated
By a twist of fate they'd be related
In the court of the two sisters I'm guilty as sin
The jury won't acquit me from the trouble I'm in
They're different as can be
But on one thing they agree
In the court of the two sisters I'm convicted
Imagine my surprise when they both got wise
Being unadvised of their family ties
Felt like I got shot between the eyes
Stunned, I said: "I'll be a son of a gun"
Brother, look what mother nature's done
I had no case, I knew my race was run
You could say their patience had been tried
'Cause my appeals have been denied
In the court of the two sisters I'm guilty as sin
The jury won't acquit me from the trouble I'm in
They're different as can be
But on one thing they agree
In the court of the two sisters I'm convicted
Now I'll never be ashamed to ask last names
Where they pitch their tents or from whence they came
I lacked one fact, it's a crying shame
Watched my game go up in flames
In the court of the two sisters I'm guilty as sin
The jury won't acquit me from the trouble I'm in
They're different as can be
But on one thing they agree
In the court of the two sisters I'm convicted
