The opening track borrows its title characters from the old English nursery rhyme also used by Lewis Carroll.
The words
Two look-alike schemers roll through a carnival-like America, bound together and impossible to tell apart.
A pair of near-identical partners travel through a sideshow version of America, inseparable and indistinguishable. The verses suggest plots, deceptions and crimes without ever explaining them, and the pair seem as wary of each other as of the world. The mood is comic but uneasy, a picture of shared ambition and mutual suspicion. The opening track borrows its title characters from the old English nursery rhyme also used by Lewis Carroll.
