Bob Dylan – Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum Lyrics  Share

From Bob Dylan's album: Love and Theft

Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee
They^,re throwing knives into the tree
Two big bags of dead man^,s bones
Got their noses to the grindstones

Living in the Land of Nod
Trustin^, their fate to the Hands of God
They pass by so silently
Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee

Well, they^,re going to the country, they^,re gonna retire
They^,re taking a streetcar named Desire
Looking in the window at the pecan pie
Lot of things they^,d like they would never buy

Neither one gonna turn and run
They^,re making a voyage to the sun
"His Master^,s voice is calling me,"
Says Tweedle-dee Dum to Tweedle-dee Dee

Tweedle-dee Dee and Tweedle-dee Dum
All that and more and then some
They walk among the stately trees
They know the secrets of the breeze

Tweedle-dee Dum said to Tweedle-dee Dee
"Your presence is obnoxious to me."
They^,re like babies sittin^, on a woman^,s knee
Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee

Well, the rain beating down on my windowpane
[ Tweedle Dee & Tweedle Dum lyrics from

I got love for you and it^,s all in vain
Brains in the pot, they^,re beginning to boil
They^,re dripping with garlic and olive oil

Tweedle-dee Dee - he^,s on his hands and his knees
Saying, "Throw me somethin^,, Mister, please."
"What^,s good for you is good for me,"
Says Tweedle-dee Dum to Tweedle-dee Dee

Well, they^,re living in a happy harmony
Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee
They^,re one day older and a dollar short
They^,ve got a parade permit and a police escort

They^,re lying low and they^,re makin^, hay
They seem determined to go all the way
They run a brick and tile company
Tweedle-dee Dum and Tweedle-dee Dee

Well a childish dream is a deathless need
And a noble truth is a sacred creed
My pretty baby, she^,s lookin^, around
She^,s wearin^, a multi-thousand dollar gown

Tweedle-dee Dee is a lowdown, sorry old man
Tweedle-dee Dum, he^,ll stab you where you stand
"I^,ve had too much of your company,"
Says, Tweedle-dee Dum to Tweedle-dee Dee
