| Two little villages on their own | 
| Each lord takin' care of his own | 
| One with a son that never looks happy | 
| The other with a daughter that dresses so snappy | 
| They love each other and they’re tryin' to get together | 
| But the feud between the families isn’t getting any better | 
| Inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| Inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| There’s only one thing for them to try | 
| To lay their bodies down and die | 
| This they do when the families see | 
| They’ve been fighting so foolishly | 
| You’re listening to a true account | 
| Of what this story’s all about | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| Try as they may they just don’t understand | 
| What their children are doing | 
| Or what they stand for today | 
| Try as they may | 
| Now you know what it’s all about | 
| Take a look inside and out | 
| A very sad song with a tale of woe | 
| I take my leave, I have to go | 
| Look very deep and look very long | 
| To find the moral of this song | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about | 
| It’s inside and out, tell you what it’s all about |
