'''"The Forgiveness Song"''' is a song sung by [[Homer Simpson]], [[Bart Simpson]] and the [[Garbage-eating husband]].


== History ==
When Homer, Bart and the people from the Brokewood Apartments watch the British movie, ''[[Love, Indubitably]]'', Homer had an idea to make
a grand romantic gesture for the forgiveness of his girls (specially [[Marge Simpson]], the Homer's wife and [[Mary Spuckler]], the Bart's girlfriend), so the girls were invited to a grand gesture, who is this song in the genre of classical music.

== Lyrics ==
:'''Homer:'''
:I wrote this song to say I'm sorry

:'''Bart:'''
:Dad, don't be a credit hog

:'''Homer:'''
:The melody is by Beethoven

:'''Bart:'''
:Not bad for a movie dog

:'''Garbage-eating husband:'''
:I'll stop eating from the garbage

:'''Homer:'''
:Marge, you will get the last pork chop

:'''Marge:'''
:''Oh... A completed chore list''

:'''Homer:'''
:''And I promise to do the things''
:''I checked off, within a year''

:'''Bart:'''
:Spuckler Mary, please forgive me
:All I ask is one more chance

== Behind the Laughter ==
*The song is a parody of {{w|Friedrich Schiller}}'s song "{{w|Ode To Joy}}".
*When singing this song, Homer sings the line: "The melody is by [[Beethoven]]" and Bart then sings: "Not bad for a movie dog". Homer is referring to the composer while Bart is referring to the film ''{{W|Beethoven (film)|Beethoven}}''.
