Lyrics

Lois: Brian, you're home early. What happened with your date?

Brian: Same thing that always happens, she was an idiot.

Lois: Oh, Brian. Don't slow down, Jonas, keep the rhythm.

Lois: ♪ Bum, bum, bum, bum. Brian, your standards are ridiculously high, you'll never find a girl unless you're willing to make exceptions and compromise so you can find your love. ♪

Brian: ♪ Lois, I don't think I have to compromise a thing, I'd rather be alone than with someone who doesn't get me—oh, and how long has the coffee been on the burner in the kitchen, I could really use a cup about now. ♪

Lois: ♪ Oh, it's not very fresh; you see, I meant to make more, but I made the mistake of getting caught up watching Oprah, she had on James Garner. ♪

Brian: ♪ James Garner, what's he plugging? ♪

Lois: ♪ I don't know, some crappy movie on TNT. ♪

Lois: Very good Jonas, I'll see you next week. So what is it Brian, you don't think these women understand you? Or...

Brian: You know, Lois, I'm really not comfortable talking about this amelodically.
