Two Sisters

Sybilla looked into her mirror

Priscilla looked into the washing machine

And the drudgery of being wed

She was so jealous of her sister

And her liberty and her smart young friends

She was so jealous of her sister

Sybilla looked into the wardrobe

Priscilla looked into the frying pan

And the bacon and eggs

And the breakfast is served

She was so jealous of her sister

And her way of life and her luxury flat

She was so jealous of her sister

She threw away her dirty dishes

Just to be free again

Her women's weekly magazines

Just to be free again

And put the children in the nursery

Just to be free again

Priscilla saw her little children

And then decided she was better off

Than the wayward lass that her sister had been

No longer jealous of her sister

So she ran 'round the house with her curlers on

No longer jealous of her sister
