Seven O'Clock in the evening
|
Watchin somethin' stupid on TV
|
I'm zoned out on the sofa
|
When my wife comes in the room and sees me
|
|
She says "Is this 'Behind the Music'
|
With Lynard Skynard?"
|
And I say "I don't know.
|
Say, it's gettin' late...watcha wanna do for dinner?
|
|
She says "I kinda had a big lunch.
|
So I'm not super hungry."
|
I said "Well you know, baby, I'm not starvin' either
|
But I could eat."
|
|
She said "So whadya have in mind?"
|
I said "I don't know what about you?"
|
She said "I don't care, if you're hungry, let's eat."
|
I said "That's what we're gonna do!"
|
|
"But first you gotta tell me
|
What it is you're hungry for!"
|
And she says "Let me think...
|
...What's left in our refridgerator?"
|
|
I said "Well, there's tuna, I know."
|
She said "That went bad a week ago!"
|
I said "Is the chili OK?"
|
She said "You finished that yesterday!"
|
|
I hopped up and I said
|
"I don't know, do you want to get something delivered?"
|
She's like "Why would I want to eat liver?
|
I don't even like liver!"
|
|
I'm like "No, I said 'delivered'."
|
She's like "I heard you say liver!"
|
I'm like "I should know what I said..."
|
She's like "Whatever, I just don't want any liver!"
|
|
Well I was gonna say something
|
But my cell phone started to ring
|
Now who could be callin' me?
|
Well I checked my caller ID
|
|
It was just cousin Larry
|
Callin' for the third time today...
|
My wife said "Let it go to voicemail."
|
I said, "OK."
|
|
"Where were we? Oh, Dinner, Right
|
So what d'ya want to do?"
|
She said "Why don't you whip up somethin in the kitchen?"
|
"Yeah," I said, "Why don't you?"
|
|
And then she said "Baby, can't we just go out to dinner, please?"
|
I says "No"
|
She says "Yes"
|
I says "No"
|
She says "Yes"
|
I says "No"
|
She says "Yes...
|
...Oh, here's your keys"
|
|
I step a little bit closer
|
Say "OK, where ya want to go?"
|
She says "How about The Ivy?"
|
I said "Yeah, well I don't know..."
|
|
I don't feel like gettin all dressed up
|
And eatin' expensive food
|
She's says "Olive Garden?"
|
I say "Nah, I'm not in the mood...
|
|
...And Burrito King would make me gassy
|
There's no doubt"
|
She says "Just forget about it"
|
I said "No, I swear I'm gonna take you out!"
|
|
Then I get an idea
|
I says "I know what we'll do!"
|
She says "What?"
|
I say "Guess"
|
She says "What?"
|
I say "We're goin' to the drive-thru!"
|
|
So we head out the front door
|
Open the garage door
|
Then I open the car doors
|
And we get in those car doors
|
|
Put my key in the ignition
|
And then I turn it sideways
|
Then we fasten our seat belts
|
As we pull out the driveway
|
|
Then we drive to the drive-thru
|
Heading off to the drive-thru
|
We're approaching the drive-thru
|
Getting close to the drive-thru!
|
|
Almost there at the drive-thru
|
Now we're here at the drive thru
|
Here in line at the drive-thru
|
Did I mention the drive-thru?
|
|
Well here we are
|
In the drive-thru line, me and her.
|
Cars in front of us, cars in back of us.
|
All just waiting to order
|
|
There's some idiot in a Volvo
|
With his brights on behind me
|
I lean out the window and scream
|
"Hey, Whatcha tryin to do, blind me?"
|
|
My wife says "Maybe we should park...
|
...We could just go eat inside."
|
I said "I'm wearin' bunny slippers
|
So I ain't leavin' this ride..."
|
|
Now a woman on a speaker box
|
Is sayin' "Can I take your order, please?"
|
I said "Yes indeed, you certainly can
|
We'd like two hamburgers with onions and cheese."
|
|
Then my wife says
|
"Baby, hold on, I've changed my mind!
|
I think I'm gonna have a chicken sa |
