- Our life is so confusing,
- No reason and no rhyme.
- We've got this funny feeling,
- Getting old before our time.
- Gimme whachu got!
- Gimme whachu got!
- I know whachu got!
- Gimme whachu got!
- Lisa:
- What kind of love brings such confusion?
- Bart:
- Shuts out the sun and kills all glee?
- Bart and Lisa:
- What are these blues we're here to tell you?
- Bart, Lisa, and Back-up Singers:
- It's sibling rivalry!
- I don't wanna share!
- I wanna make you nuts!
- Gimme whachu got!
- Gotta have it all!
- Bart:
- Sometimes I see her doing homework.
- Lisa:

- Whyyyyyyy does it feel so good?
- My idea of fun!
- I know it's wrong to feel so mean,
- You...you should've hear her scream!

- Hold your ground, Lisa.

- What kind of love brings such contusions?
- Bart:
- All these Band-Aids the world can see?

- A brother and a sister.
- We're trying not to boast.
- But we can't help believing
- That we'll always be this close.
- Back-up Singers:
- Siblings find it, oh, so hard
- When it comes to giving
- If they once tried singing background for a living!
- Bart and Lisa:
- A brother and a sister,
- We will always be this close.
- Bart:
- Let go of my hand, Lisa.
