DEEZER

[SPIKER, spoken]
Seems like we’ve lost nearly everything, Spongers. Everything! I mean really, what have we got?

[SPONGE]
You thought you could ride
On the fruits of your dreams
But you couldn’t
So what?

[SPIKER]
You thought life would glide
Just like peaches and creams
But it wouldn’t
Who cares!

[SPONGE]
No paparazzi ask you to pose

[SPIKER]
You want a new yacht
You can’t buy one of those

[SPIKER & SPONGE]
That’s the way your new life goes
But in the end
You still got your best friend
And I got you!
You!

[SPONGE]
You!

[SPIKER]
You!

[SPONGE]
You!

[SPIKER]
You!

[SPIKER & SPONGE]
Who can replace
That Frankenstein face?
You know that it’s true
I got you!

[SPIKER, spoken]
Two peas in a pod we arе!

[SPONGE, spoken]
What does that mean?

[SPONGE]
You got breath likе goat’s manure

[SPIKER]
You smell like a bloody sewer

[SPIKER & SPONGE]
You are just the right wrong-doer for me
So glad to know you
Alright, so you
Lost all you had
And though you had quite a lot
It’s in tatters

[SPIKER, spoken]
Move on!

[SPONGE, spoken]
Get over yourself!

[SPIKER & SPONGE]
It’s dreadful and sad
'Til you realize you got what still matters

[SPONGE, spoken]
What still matters?

[SPIKER, spoken]
My figure, my cheekbones, my radiant youth!

[SPONGE]
Voluptuous curves and my solid gold tooth!

[SPIKER & SPONGE]
But the very scary truth is that she
Means the most to me
I love you, sis!

So glad I got you!
To laugh and to share
As half of a pair
Through thin and through thick
We’ll stick to our shtick

Always true to you!
You!
You!
You!

I got you!
