lyrics

AMY
Dad! What was that?
What the hell was that?
You turned Mom’s funeral
Into some kind of weird joke
Is your brain broke?

BEN
Umm... no?

UNCLE/AUNT
What was that?
What the hell was that?

UNCLE
He turned my sister’s eulogy
Into some kind of sick show
We gotta go--

AUNT
Shh-- he’s grieving

UNCLE
No. We’re leaving.

AUNT
Ben! That was a... really... beautiful tribute.

UNCLE
No. It was sick!

BEN
I know, it was inappropriate. I guess I’m...
Just a "widow" upset
Sorry, that just came out!
‘Cuz I’m a "widow" upset?

UNCLE
You’ve gone too far

BEN
This is just how I get

AUNT
Something’s wrong

BEN
When I’m a "widow" upset

UNCLE
I’ll go get the car

BEN
Wait, I thought that you would come to the reception
And now I’m feeling recep-"shunned"--
I didn’t mean to do that!
I’m just a "widow" upset!

AMY
Now what was that?
What the fuck was that?

BEN
Language!
I honestly didn’t mean
To offend your mother’s brother

AMY
With awful jokes one after another?

BEN
They aren’t awful jokes
They’re awful puns
And your Mom would’ve thought that they were awful-ly good

Sorry, I’ll stop.

I’m... just a "widow" upset
Maybe I can’t stop!
‘Cuz I’m a "widow" upset

AMY
Does this need to be said?
That a funeral is not the right time or place
To list 50 different kinds of bread
I’m afraid of what you will say next
And how’d you make those slides? You can’t even text!

BEN
I’m just a "widow" upset

BOSS
Hey Ben, sorry for your loss

BEN
Thank you, Boss

BOSS
Take as long as you need
To come back to the office

BEN
I’ll come back to the “Microsoft” Office
With a new “Outlook”
So I can “Excel”
“Word.”

BOSS
Good God. Forget it, don’t ever come back.

BEN
No need to get “Clippy!” The paper clip, remember?? I just lost my job.

AMY
Yeah! So you acknowledge these jokes are inappropriate?

BEN
I... "egg"-knowlege these "yolks"

AMY
Oh come on!

BEN
Are inappropriate.

AMY
Thank you.

BEN
But also...
"Egg"-cellent
And should’ve gone "over-easy"
At this "shell"-e-bratory event
Ev’ry "yolk" I’d hatch your mom’d get
So "ome-lette" myself get
Just a "widow" upset

AMY
You have a problem

BEN
I "egg" to differ

AMY
You need therapy

BEN
I dis-"egg"-gree

AMY
You’re exhausting

BEN
"Egg"-xhausting

AMY
STOP SAYING EGG!

BEN
"Egg"-kay. I mean-- O. Kay. I’ll come to therapy.

AMY
Good.
‘Cuz you’re
Clearly more

BOTH
Than a "widow" upset!

AMY
Ugh, you made me say "widow."
