Well this calls for a toast, so pour the champagne
Oh! Well in fact, 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, pour the champagne

I'd chime in with a 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!'

No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality.
I'd chime in, 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!'
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality.

I'd chime in, 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!'

I'd chime in, 'Haven't you people ever heard of closing a goddamn door?!'
No, it's much better to face these kinds of things with a sense of poise and rationality.
