Two Sisters (The Kinks song)
"Two Sisters" is the third track from The Kinks' 1967 album, ''Something Else by the Kinks''. The song was written by Ray Davies.
==Lyrics==
In "Two Sisters", the singer compares sisters Sylvilla and Percilla. Sylvilla is a swinging, single "wayward lass", while Percilla is a married housewife. Percilla is tired of facing "the drudgery of being wed", with her being said to be "so jealous of her sister." The singer compares how "Sylvilla looked into her mirror; Percilla looked into the washing machine" and how "Sylvilla looked into the wardrobe; Percilla looked into the frying pan." Percilla then "threw away her dirty dishes just to be free again (threw away ) her women's weekly magazines just to be free again and put the children in the nursery just to be free again." However, upon seeing her children, she "decided she was better off" than her wild sister. She's "no longer jealous of her sister."
The two characters in the lyrics of "Two Sisters" (Sylvilla and Percilla) were inspired by Ray Davies and his brother, Dave Davies.〔 Ray was more introverted (and was the only one of the two married) while Dave was a party animal who was very outgoing. This clash of personalities was often the cause of many band in-fights, which would come out in their songs (ex. "Dandy", which is often thought to be about Dave).
