Lyrics Gilbert O'Sullivan

Gilbert O'Sullivan

Two's Company (Three Is Allowed)

Sellotape is sticky

Now there's a surprise

Next they'll tell you you can see out of your eyes

Mummified mummies daddies little girl

Had the operation then became an earl

Once you would have kissed her gently on the cheek

Now she kisses you beginning with your feet

Roles that are reversing so misunderstood

Kids who think monogamy is a piece of wood

Ooh but two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed

These days as a woman you are out of place

If you're not a lesbian whose friends are gays

Anything is normal normal is of course

Getting married after planning your divorce

Usually I don't go much at all on twins

Once you've seen the one you've seen them both I think

Mind you when they're pretty pretty as a peach

Whose to say that on the day with one of each

Ooh two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed

I look like I wanna look I wear what I like

It won't be a suit and no it won't be a tie

A tie is a dead heat not a knot round your neck

Neck is what you do when

Alone with your girlfriend

Ooh but two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed

Two's company three is allowed
