Evil Twin Brother Lyrics

I wasn't there
That wasn't me
It must have been my evil twin brother
I couldn't hear
I didn't see
It must have been my evil twin brother
(Evil twin, my evil twin brother)

They say that New York City never sleeps
But I think they're only talking about me
It's 3 AM and 95 degrees, oh-oh

So I dressed and went out for a bite to eat
I found an open diner on 14th
Yelena brought me carrot cake and tea, oh-oh

Regina Spektor speaking Russian
Хочешь ещё кофе? [Want more coffee?]
Я закончу в 4. [I'll finish at 4.]
Нет, мы открыты круглосуточно. [No, we are open round-the-clock.]

I wasn't there
That wasn't me
It must have been my evil twin brother
I couldn't hear
I didn't see
It must have been my evil twin brother
(Evil twin, my evil twin brother)

The village was a maze of cobbled streets
He stepped into a doorway out the rain
With the warm air from the subway on our skin

Regina Spektor speaking Russian
Хочешь? Кажется дождь прекратился. [Do you want? It seems the rain stopped.]

An alleyway you'd never known we'd take

Regina Spektor speaking Russian
кукол... [Dolls...]

The neon sign beneath the fire escape
The man with the walky-talky said come in, in, in

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)
That wasn't me (that wasn't me)
It must have been my evil twin brother (o-ho)
I couldn't hear (I couldn't hear)
I didn't see (I couldn't see)
It must have been my evil twin brother (evil)

I wasn't there (wasn't me)
That wasn't me (not me)
It must have been my evil twin brother
I couldn't hear (I couldn't hear)
(I couldn't see) I didn't see (noo)

I hadn't touched a drink in over a year
But I told myself I'd stop at just one beer
I found myself a stool at the bar, oh-oh
A blur among the bodies in the store
I saw Yelena spining like a globe
She took my hand and led me on the floor, floor, floor

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)
That wasn't me (not me)
It must have been my
Evil twin brother (oohoo)
I couldn't move (e-vil)
I didn't breathe (e-vil)
It must have been my
Evil twin brother (e-vil)

I wasn't there (I wasn't there)
That wasn't me (that wasn't me)
It must have been my (hee)
Evil twin brother (no, no, no)
How could I fall (no)
How could I cheat (noo)
It must have been my (evil)
Evil twin brother (e-vil)

I wasn't there (ugh, oooh)
That wasn't me (e-vil)
It must have been my
Evil twin brother (not me)
How could I fall
How could I cheat (e-vil)
It must have been my
Evil twin brother (noo)
(woo, noo-ooh, hee, I couldn't see)
Evil twin, my evil twin brother
It must have been my (oo)
Evil twin brother (mmm)
Evil twin (wooo), my evil twin brother (e-vil, e-vil)
I wasn't there
It must have been my
evil twin brother (evil)
