Lyrics

[SARAH, spoken] Harry? [HARRY, spoken] Uh? [SARAH, spoken] Do you wanna stand there? [HARRY, spoken] Okay, I'm standing here Now what? [SARAH, spoken] Well, darling, just come at me [HARRY, spoken] Okay [JOANNE] It's the little things you do together Do together Do together That make perfect relationships The hobbies you pursue together Savings you accrue together Looks you misconstrue together That make marriage a joy Mm-hm... [HARRY, spoken] Well, I could have blocked that [SARAH, spoken] No, that can't be blocked [HARRY, spoken] You wanna do it again? [SARAH, spoken] Okay [HARRY, spoken] I'll come at you again [SARAH, spoken] Okay [JOANNE] It's the little things you share together Swear together Wear together That make perfect relationships The concerts you enjoy together Neighbors you annoy together Children you destroy together That keep marriage intact It's not so hard to be married When two maneuver as one It's not so hard to be married And Jesus Christ, is it fun It's sharing little winks together Drinks together Kinks together That make marriage a joy The bargains that you shop together Cigarettes you stop together Clothing that you swap together That make perfect relationships Uh-huh... Mm-hm... [SARAH, spoken] Uncle? [HARRY, spoken] Uncle your ass! [ALL] It's not talk of God and the decade ahead that Allows you to get through the worst It's "I do" and "You don't" and "Nobody said that" And "Who brought the subject up first?" It's the little things The little little little little little things The little ways you try together— Cry together— Lie together— That make perfect relationships Becoming a cliché together Growing old and gray together [JOANNE] Withering away together [GROUP] That makes marriage a joy [MEN] It's not so hard to be married [WOMEN] It's much the simplest of crimes [MEN] It's not so hard to be married [JOANNE] I've done it three or four times [JENNY] It's people that you hate together [PAUL & AMY] Bait together [PETER & SUSAN] Date together [GROUP] That make marriage a joy [DAVID] It's things like using force together [LARRY] Shouting till you're hoarse together [JOANNE] Getting a divorce together [GROUP] That make perfect relationships Uh-huh... Kiss, kiss... Mm-hm
