Lyrics & Translation

[English]

...first saw the giant dog shadow fall over the park

Yeah, but did they have to shoot him down?

I mean that was just mean.

Okay, right about now

the turkey should be crispy on the outside

juicy on the inside...

Why are we standing here?

We're waiting for you to open the door.

You've got the keys.

No, I don't.

Yes, you do.

When we left, you said, "got the keys."

No, I didn't. I asked, "got the keys■

No, no, no, you said, "got the keys."■

Either of you have the keys?■

The oven is on!

Oh, I've got to get my ticket!

Oh, wait, wait. We have a copy of your key.

Well, then get it! Get it!

Hey, hey, that tone wont make me go any faster.

- Joey. - That one will.

[instrumental music]

Nope, not that one.

Can you go any faster with that?

Hey, I got one key hole and about a zillion keys.

You do the math.

Why do you guys have so many keys in there anyway?

For an emergency just like this.

Alright, listen, smirky, if it wasn't for you

and your stupid balloon, I would be on a plane

watching a woman do this right now

but I'm not.

I swear you said you had the keys!

No, I didn't!

I wouldn't say I had the keys unless I had the keys...

And I obviously did not have the keys!

Oh, okay, alright. That's it. Enough with the keys.

- Why would I have the keys? - Oh.

Aside from the fact that you said you had them?

- But I didn't. - Well, you should have.

- 'Why?' - 'Because.'

- 'Why?' - 'Because.'

Why? Because everything is my responsibility?

Is that-isn't it enough that I'm making

Thanksgiving dinner for everyone?

You know, everyone wants a different kind of potato.

So I'm making different kinds of potatoes!

I mean, does anybody care

what kind of potatoes I■want?

No! No! No!■

You know, just as long Phoebe gets her peas and onions

and Mario gets his tots and...

It's my first Thanksgiving! and I..

It's all burned! and..

[sobbing]

Okay, Monica, only dogs can hear you now.

Look, the door's open. Here we go.

Oh, God.

- Oh. - Oh.

Well... turkey's burnt!

Potatoes are ruined. Potatoes are ruined.

Potatoes are ruined.

♪ Here we come

♪ Walkin' down the.. ♪

This doesn't smell like mom's.

No, it doesn't, does it?

But you wanted lumps, Ross?

Well, here you go, buddy. You got one!

Oh, God, this is great!

The plane is gone, so I guess I'm stuck here with you guys!

Hey, we all had better plans, okay?

This was nobody's first choice.

Oh, really?

So why was I busting my ass to make

this delicious Thanksgiving dinner?!

You call that delicious?

[indistinct chatter]

Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!

Now, this feels like Thanksgiving.

Key Grammar Structures

• Did they have to shoot him down?

  ➔ modal verb “have to” (obligation) in a past‑question

  ➔ The word "have to" expresses an obligation that someone was required to do in the past.

• Why are we standing here?

  ➔ present continuous (progressive) for a current action

  ➔ The form "are … standing" combines the auxiliary verb "are" with the present participle "standing" to show an ongoing action.

• You've got the keys.

  ➔ present perfect (have/has + past participle) expressing possession

  ➔ "You've" is the contraction of "you have"; "have" + "got" (past participle of "get") shows that you possess the keys now.

• I wouldn't say I had the keys unless I had the keys...

  ➔ second conditional (unreal present) with "unless"

  ➔ "Wouldn't say" (conditional modal) + "unless" introduces a hypothetical situation that is not true.

• I mean, does anybody care what kind of potatoes I want?

  ➔ present simple question with auxiliary "does" (indirect question)

  ➔ "does" is the auxiliary for third‑person singular; it forms a yes/no question about "anybody".

• Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!

  ➔ imperative mood (command)

  ➔ "Stop" is a base‑form verb used to give a direct command.

• This doesn't smell like mom's.

  ➔ present simple negative with auxiliary "does not" (contraction "doesn't")

  ➔ "doesn't" is the contracted form of "does not"; it negates the verb "smell" for third‑person singular.

• If it wasn't for you and your stupid balloon, I would be on a plane watching a woman do this right now.

  ➔ second conditional (unreal present) with "if" + past simple, result clause with "would" + base verb

  ➔ "wasn't" (past simple of "be") introduces an unreal situation; "would be" expresses what would happen now if that situation were true.

• The oven is on!

  ➔ simple present of the verb "be" for a state

  ➔ "is" (present of "be") links the subject "the oven" to the predicate "on", indicating a current condition.
