Lyrics[edit]

Homer:
One opinionated man,
Doesn't stand a chance.
Against an army of tweens.
Echo:
Damn tweens.
Homer:
It's like trying to fight an angry hill of ants,
Flying on the backs,
Of killer bees.
Echo:
Killer bees.
Homer:
I don't change,
My shorts no more.
Glitter bombs inside my,
Undie drawer.
Echo:
Undie drawer.
Homer:
The word "family" has a bitter ring.
Echo:
Bitter ring.
Homer:
It's my family who's been,
Glittering.
Echo:
Glittering.
Homer:
It's my family.
Breakfast and betrayal.
Pancakes bitter in my mouth, yet I ate seven.
You sent an army against those who are me.
You three took.
Three-took, the opposite of for-give.
Yet, I forgive.
Marge.
Echo:
You brought joy and dinner to my life.
You're still a Fudgie Whale of a wife.
Even when I do things wrong.
Homer:
I wrong do things!
Echo:
Like pass out on the lawn at crack of dawn.
Homer:
Bart.
Echo:
This verse goes out to Bartholomew.
Homer:
Why, you little...!
Echo:
When I smell mothballs,
Now I think beef stew.
Why, you little... You!
You're kind of cool, stay in school.
Homer:
Lisa.
Echo:
You don't suffer fools or eat baloney.
Homer:
Mmm, baloney.
Echo:
Just jamming on your brass saxo-ma-phony.
You're my little lampshade girl.
In white pearls, you're my world.
'Cause we,
Me, you three and Maggie.
Can bring this war down.
Homer:
Can bring this war down.
Echo:
Can bring this war down, we, me.
You three and Maggie,
Will be okay now.
Homer:
Will be okay now.
Echo:
We going to be okay now, if we,
Me, you three and Maggie,
Just stick together.
Homer:
If we just,
If we just stick together.
Echo:
We, me,
You three and Maggie could stop,
A meltdown.
Homer:
To stop this war, we don't need a grand gesture.
We don't need to make a stand.
We just need to sit down together.
