Lyrics & Translation

[English]

So, where's your roommate tonight?

Well, I thought it was a little unfair that she's always here and you never get a chance

to stay over.

So, I killed her.

I remembered our agreement.

You can joke about murdering people, but you have to say

"Just kidding".

And the more important thing to remember is that I'd never hurt you.

Oh, crap.

I have to run over to the hospital and check on a patient.

That's okay, I can come back later.

No, no, don't be silly.

I won't be gone long.

Just stay here.

Okay, cool.

Oh, and you sure your roommate's not going to come back while I'm here alone, right?

Because that'll be awkward.

Oh, don't worry, she's in Palm Springs.

Oh, good.

Well, her torso is.

Just kidding.

I put her in a wood chipper.

Oh dear Lord- Oh dear Lord.

It's okay.

You made it, we're fine.

That was a lot of puppies.

Let's forget about them and pick ourselves out a nice turtle.

How about this one up on the log?

Oh, I don't know.

He kind of looks like a jerk.

How about this one?

He's barely moving.

He looks half dead.

I know, I like him too.

Hi little guy.

How'd you like to come home with us?

You'll be living with me, because we don't live in the same house.

But that's not your fault.

Like you-

We're taking it ridiculously slow.

You'll stay with me when he's at Comic-Con or away for work

Yeah, or if they accept daddy's application to live on Mars.

What are you talking about?

Oh, well, there's this company that's attempting to establish a colony on Mars, and

I applied to be among the first to go.

What should we name him?

I came in thinking Seth, but-

He kind of looks Italian.

You applied for a mission to be a colonist on another planet and couldn't be bothered to tell me?

Would you have approved?

Of course not.

Well, based on your reaction, it looks like I made the right choice.

Isn't that right, Giuseppe?

Hey- Hey listen, I have a little confession to make.

Oh, is this your first time?

No. I got you something for Valentine's Day, and I was too embarrassed to give it to you.

Why?

Because I got it at the dirty store.

You went to the dirty store without me?

In sunglasses and a hat after I parked two blocks away.

Get it- Get it for me!

Yeah?

Okay um-

Uh, well, I hope it's fun.

It comes with paint, and it's kind of creative and artistic.

Okay, did you go to the dirty store or Michaels?

No, no- We cover ourselves in body paint.

And then- then we get on this big canvas and do our thing.

Whoa it's kind of a big step for a guy who only recently agreed to take his socks off.

You're making fun of me, forget it.

No no!

Come on, I want to do it.

Really?

Yeah!

Let's you, me and your very, very pale feet make some art.

Hey, when you go back to the store, I want to go with you.

Okay.

Well, it's a drive.

The one I went to is in San Diego.

Key Grammar Structures

• I "thought" it was a little unfair that she's always here and you never get a chance to stay over.

  ➔ Past simple + that‑clause (reported thought)

  ➔ "thought" is the past‑tense verb showing the speaker’s belief at a previous time; the following "that"‑clause tells us what the belief was.

• You can "joke" about murdering people, but you have to say "Just kidding".

  ➔ Modal verb "can" + base verb (ability/permission)

  ➔ "can" expresses ability or permission. It is followed by the base form "joke" without "to".

• I "have to" run over to the hospital and check on a patient.

  ➔ Obligation with "have to" + infinitive

  ➔ "have to" expresses external necessity. It is followed by the base verb "run".

• "That's" okay. I can "come back" later.

  ➔ Contraction "that's" (that is) + modal "can" + verb phrase

  ➔ "That's" is the contracted form of "that is". "can" shows ability; the verb phrase "come back" is an infinitive without "to" after a modal.

• Because "that'll" be awkward.

  ➔ Future with contraction "that'll" (that will)

  ➔ "that'll" = "that will". The future simple is formed with "will"; here it is contracted for informal speech.

• We "don't" live in the same house.

  ➔ Present simple negative with auxiliary "do" + not

  ➔ "don't" is the contracted form of "do not" used to make a present‑simple negative statement.

• If they "accept" daddy's application to live on Mars.

  ➔ First conditional: if + simple present, (future) result implied

  ➔ "accept" is in the simple present because the if‑clause talks about a possible future situation; the main clause is omitted but the consequence is understood.

• "Would" you have "approved"?

  ➔ Modal "would" + perfect infinitive (past conditional)

  ➔ "Would" expresses a hypothetical situation in the past; "have approved" is the perfect infinitive showing the action that could have taken place.

• I "put" her in a wood chipper.

  ➔ Simple past (irregular verb "put")

  ➔ "put" is an irregular verb whose past form is identical to the base form; it shows a completed action in the past.
