Three little unexpected children
Simultaneously the doctor brought us
And you can see that we'll be three forever and
A E I O
You wouldn't know how agonizing being triple can be
Each one is individually the victim of the clinical day
E I O
Every summer we go away to Baden Baden Baden
Every winter we come back home to Walla Walla Walla
We do everything alike
We look alike
We dress alike
We walk alike
We talk alike
And what is more
We hate each other very much
We hate our folks
We're sick of jokes
On what an art it is to tell us apart
If one of us gets the measles
Another one gets the measles
Then all of us gets the measles and mumps and croup
How I wish I had a gun
A little gun
It would be fun to shoot the other two
And be only one!
Mrs Wifflepoofer loves to talk to Mrs Hildendorfer
Of the fatal natal day she had her silly Willy
Mrs Hassencooper loves to talk to Mrs Goldenwasser
Of her major operation when she had her twins
But when Mother comes along she silences the others
She accomplished something that is very rare in mothers
MGM has got a Leo but Mama has got a trio
She is proud but says three is a crowd
We do everything alike
We look alike we dress alike
We walk alike we talk alike
And what is more
We hate each other very much
We hate our folks
We're sick of jokes
On what an art it is to tell us apart
We eat the same kind of vittles
We drink the same kind of bottles
We sit in the same kind of highchair
Highchair highchair
Oh I wish I had a gun a little gun
It would be fun to shoot the other two
And be only one
