Now for the anticipated chords and lyrics

[B]Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee
They're throwing knives into the trees
Two big bags of dead mans bones
Got their noses to the grindstones
[E]Living in the land of Nod
[B]Trusting their fate to the hands of God
[E]They pass by so silently
[B]Tweedle Dum and tweedle Dee

Well they are going to the country they're going to retire
They're taking a street car named desire
Looking at the window with a pecan pie
Lots of thingd they'd like they'd never buy
Neither one want to turn and run
And making a voyage to the sun
his masters voice is calling me
Said tweedle dum to tweedle dee

Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum
All that and more and then some
They walk among the stately trees
They know the secrets of the breeze
Tweedle dee said to tweedle dum
Your presence is obnoxious to me
Feel like a baby sitting on a womans knee
Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Well the rains beating down on a window pane
I've got love for you and its all in vain
Brains in a pot, They're beginning to boil
They're dripping with Garlic and Olive Oil
Tweedle Dums on his hands and knees
Saying Throw me something mister, please
Whats good for you is good for me
Said Tweedle Dum to Tweedle Dee

Well they're living in a happy harmony
Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee
They're one day older and one day short
They got a paid permit and a police escort
They're lying low and They're making hay
They seem determined to go all the way
They run a brick and tile company
Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee

Well a childish dream is a deathless need
And a noble truth is a sacred creed
My pretty baby shes looking around
Shes wearing a multi thousand dollar gown
Tweedle Dee is a low down sorry old man
Tweedle Dum he'll stab you where you stand
I've had too much of your company
Said Tweedle Dum to Tweedle Dee
