- You joke, you laugh, you take no blame
- I'm telling you, there's just no way that we're the same.

- Try not to judge so easily
- Believe it or not, you're a lot like me
- Say, believe it or not, you're a lot like me!

- But take a look under the fur
- Deep in our heart is what matters for sure!
- Chorus:
- Sisi ni sawa!
