“The ‘Sisters, Sisters’ Unity Song for Home Schoolers”
(Modified lyrics by Doug Phillips with sincere apologies to Irving Berlin)

Sisters, sisters,
There were never such devoted sisters.
Never wander very far from “Sis,” no sir,
I’m there to keep my eye on her.

Caring, sharing,
Every little thing that we are wearing.
We don’t go on dates and that’s okay,
We’d rather stay home and play all day.

All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain or sun.
Two different faces but in tight places,
We think and we act as one. Uh-huh.

Those who’ve seen us,
Know that not a thing could come between us.
Many peers have tried to split us up but no one can.
Won’t help a mister to come between me and my sister,
And won’t help a mister to come between me and my clan.

“Brothers, Brothers,” or “The Just Say ‘No’ to Peer Grouping Song”
(Modified lyrics by Doug Phillips with sincere apologies to Irving Berlin)

Brothers, brothers,
There were never such devoted brothers.
When there comes a flock of peers to tempt a sin,
He watches me and I watch him.

Caring, sharing,
Ev’ry little thing that we are wearing.
When a certain “Little Bear” hero came,
He wore buckskins and I the same.

All kinds of weather, we stick together, the same in the rain or sun.
Two diff’rent faces, but in tight places, we think and we act as one.

Those who’ve seen us,
Know that not a thing could come between us.
Many peers have tried to split us up, but no one shall.
Won’t help the peer group to come between me and my brother
And won’t let another to come between me and my pal.

Helpful Hint: When Irving Berlin wrote the original “Sisters, Sisters” in 1954, he chose a really complex, but satisfying lyrical pattern which you might find difficult to sing without a bit of help.
