🎤 Sing along

Sing with the chorus

  • Closing a goddamn door?"
  • No, it's much better to face these kinds of things
  • With a sense of poise and rationality
  • I chime in, "Haven't you people ever heard of

Echo the hook

  • Well, I'll look at it this way
  • I mean technically, our marriage is saved
  • Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
  • Oh, well in fact
wellchimehaven't
