Lyrics[]
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Do I know you?
Doofenshmirtz: Yeah, I'm you from another dimension.
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Well, that would explain the handsomeness.
Doofenshmirtz: Right back at you, big guy.
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Does that mean you and I are exactly alike?
Doofenshmirtz: I suppose so.
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Do you want some rice pudding?
Doofenshmirtz: No, that's gross!
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): It was a test! Almond brittle?
Doofenshmirtz: Ooh, I love it the most!
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Me too!
Doofenshmirtz: Do you collect coins?
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Yeah, just in case
Vending machines become the
Both: Dominant race
I've been alone all these years
With my irrational fears
Doofenshmirtz: But not the vending machine thing. That's gonna happen.
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): But now before me I see
Both: Someone with whom I agree
I've found a brand new best friend and it's me (2x)
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Hmm, I thought I'd be taller
Doofenshmirtz: I've been told I slouch
I thought I'd have both my eyes, y'know...
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): It's in this pouch
Doofenshmirtz: Ouch!
Doofenshmirtz: You know, I can't help but notice that your scar goes over your eyepatch.
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Yeah...
Doofenshmirtz: (pause) ...Nothing...
Doofenshmirtz: Do Lamas weird you out?
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Yeah, are they camels or sheep?
Doofenshmirtz: No, no, I meant Lorenzo
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Oh, that's right
Both: He played Meap!
Both: Now I know all about you
And you know all about me
Doofenshmirtz: Ooh-wee-ooh
Both: And now before me I see
Someone with whom I agree
I've found a brand new best friend and it's me (2x)
Now that I've found you
We can be a duo
Doofenshmirtz: That's right.
Both: Twice the evil
Double Doofenshmirtz
Doofenshmirtz: Coming at you Fridays!
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): What- What's that, are we doing a TV show together?
Doofenshmirtz: Oh no. It just sort of sounded like it. Well, I mean, we could. We should!
Doofenshmirtz (2nd Dimension): Hmm, maybe we're not so much alike.
Doofenshmirtz: That can be your catchphrase! You're the grumpy one. (Pokes him) huh?

Continuity[]
