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.
- 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.
Behind the Laughter[edit]
The line "When I smell mothballs, now I think beef stew." is a reference to the song "Do the Bartman", which has the lyric "Because I put moth balls in the beef stew." The line "You're still a Fudgie Whale of a wife." is a reference to "A Milhouse Divided", where Homer got Marge a cake in the shape of a whale that had the text "To a whale of a wife" written on it.
