"Hilarity Ensues" lyrics

"Hilarity Ensues"

Knucklehead 1 falls in love with Knucklehead 2
They tell each other all their secrets
They start to share a point of view
There's a bit lost in translation
Always something misconstrued
And hilarity ensues

This knucklehead pair tell the oldest of their knucklehead brood
You can be anything you want, son
We believe in you
So he sets out for the real world
Thinking this is true
And hilarity ensues

Let our substances impair us
Let the deadly virus spare us
Let our horror movies scare us
Then let's do it all again
Let's root, root for the home team
Then buy each other ice cream
Let's live inside the daydream
That is all it's ever been

This knucklehead boy thinks he's talking to his knucklehead god
God says, "This is all your fault, kid
You should've taken odds
But if you give me all your money
I'll see what I can do"
And hilarity ensues

Let our substances impair us
Let the deadly virus spare us
Let our horror movies scare us
Then let's do it all again
Let's root, root for the home team
Then buy each other ice cream
Let's live inside the daydream
That is all it's ever been
That is all it's ever been
