[LISA]
Hey, mister!
Hey, you!
What are you looking so sad for?
[ROGER]
Nothing, really nothing, absolutely nothing
How about some money?
[LISA]
I can't refuse
I need new shoes
And some pants
I need romance
What about you?
[ROGER]
Tonight, after eight long hours he appeared
It was worse than the doctor had feared
And then the doctor said, “I hoped by now he'd be awake;
At least I thought he'd be awake. My mistake!”
Then I prodded him and poked him
And his mother started crying
And then Rhoda started yelling at the nurse
It was a really lousy day in the universe
[LISA]
You love him
Too bad
What are you looking surprised for?
[ROGER]
We hoped things would turn out better
[LISA]
Things don't get better
They only seem to
Then they don't
Don't be surprised
When life turns out to be
A trashy old catastrophe
Hey, mister!
It's all right
Life is a rotten occasion
[ROGER]
Let me give you money
[LISA]
Please forget the money
Please do not insult me
I'm not amused
[ROGER]
But it's therapy
[LISA]
I give therapy for free
I'm just glad to have a client finally
[ROGER]
So I called his name and hugged him
But the jerk is in a coma
And his mother hopes he dies if he gets worse
It was a really lousy day in the universe
[LISA]
They all are
They all are
