“You Too”

[Intro – Spoken] I would like to go back in time. Not far. Just like… ten seconds. Two words. That’s all it took. Two very unfortunate words. You too. [Verse 1 – Talk-Sing] Somebody said, “Bless you” when I sneezed I said, “You too” — what’s wrong with me? You didn’t sneeze, there’s no excuse Now I think I’m just gonna deuce Mouth on autopilot, way too fast I knew the moment as it passed I heard it echo as I walked away And I will think about it every day [Pre-Chorus] Why do I talk Why do I try Why do these words Just slip out of my mind [Chorus – Big Dramatic] YOU TOO! I DIDN’T MEAN YOU TOO! THAT DOESN’T EVEN APPLY TO YOU! YOU TOO! I PANICKED, IT’S TRUE! MY BRAIN JUST HIT REPLY-ALL ON “YOU TOO!” [GANG VOCALS:] (You too! You too! You too!) [Verse 2 – Talk-Sing] Waiter said, “Enjoy your meal” “You too” — I need to leave for real You’re not eating, you work all night Why’d I say that, that’s not right Flight attendant, “Have a nice flight” “You too” — I’m not alright You work here, you’re not coming along Why does my mouth keep getting it wrong [Chorus] YOU TOO! IT HAPPENED AGAIN! I NEED A NEW LIFE, A NEW NAME, NEW FRIENDS! YOU TOO! I CAN’T DEFEND! THIS IS A MISTAKE I MAKE ‘TIL THE END! [GANG VOCALS:] Wrong response! (HEY!) Social cost! (HEY!) I have lost! (HEY!) [Bridge – Spoken Dramatic Breakdown] Let’s review. Correct responses include: “Thank you.” “You as well.” “I appreciate it.” Incorrect responses include: “You too.” “You too.” YOU TOO. Why is it always the default setting in my brain? Who programmed this? Who’s in charge here? I would like to file a complaint. Against myself. [Final Chorus – Extra Big] YOU TOO! ECHOING IN MY HEAD! I WILL REMEMBER THIS WHEN I’M IN BED! YOU TOO! I’LL NEVER BE FREE! THIS MOMENT WILL HAUNT ME ETERNALLY! [GANG VOCALS:] You too! (REGRET!) You too! (SOCIAL DEBT!) You too! (I’M NOT OVER IT!) [Outro – Spoken] Barista said, “Enjoy your drink.” I said… “You too.” I made eye contact. I shouldn’t have made eye contact.
