[Pre-Chorus] [Him] The reservation is at eight Google says thirty minutes, but that's a lie That's a lie they tell to hurt us We needed to leave at seven-twenty-five It is seven-fifty-one [Chorus] [Both harmonizing] We should have left twenty minutes ago (minutes ago) The GPS is recalculating our fate We should have left twenty minutes ago And now we're gonna be late, late, late Fashionably late is a myth that tardy people made up We should have left twenty minutes ago [Him] But here we are still [Verse 3] [Her] Okay, now I'm coming Just gotta grab my... which coat?

[Verse 4] [Him] The weather app says forty percent Which means absolutely nothing I've been sitting here so long The neighbors think I'm casing the street Sharon waved at me twice I have run out of ways to wave back [Chorus] [Both] We should have left twenty minutes ago (minutes ago) The clock on the dash is judging us hard We should have left twenty minutes ago Why is this always so hard, hard, hard? Other couples just leave, they just walk out the door and they're gone We should have left twenty minutes ago [Him] But...

[Drop] [Bridge] [Her] Phone in my hand Coat on my back Out the door and Don’t look back Locked the door Grabbed my keys [Him, yelling:] WHY ARE YOU HOLDING THE REMOTE? [Chorus] [Both] We should have left twenty minutes ago (minutes ago) Now we're leaving twenty-seven minutes late We should have left twenty minutes ago And that's just our fate, fate, fate This is who we are now This has been a day We should have left twenty minutes ago But at least we're on our way [Outro] [Him] Okay, we're moving, we're in motion, this is good Deep breaths, we're only... [Her] (ah-ah-ah) thirty-four minutes late [Him] That's fine, we'll just tell them there was traffic [Her] (Was there traffic) [Him] There's always traffic, that's the beauty of traffic [Her]Wait, did you grab that thing?
