The Humour Of The Situation Lyrics - Maroon - Barenaked Ladies

When you walked in, I said with a grin 

That we were just talking about you 

We all had to lie because you would cry 

If you knew we were laughing at you 

In the momentary lull before the band begins to play 

There's an overwhelming stench of alibi 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation

I said on the phone "don't wait til I'm home" 

But I'm sure I could hear you crying 

I said where I was, but you doubt it because 

It's the caller I.D. you're buying 

In the hour that it took for me to drive up to the door 

You'd arranged all my belongings on the lawn 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation 

Have you heard the one about the boy 

Who moved into the henhouse to sleep? 

He woke up with egg on his face 

When he found out all the hens had crossed the street

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now 

Enjoy the humour of the situation 

As I walked out, I thought about all I had left behind me 

I felt a chill because I was still 

Wearing the emperor's new clothes 

My mind was racing with each chance that I had missed 

While your next door neighbour soaked me with the hose 

I've never felt so small, I've never been so dissed 

As I shiver, dripping, while the chorus goes: 

Come on now, now 

Come on now, now
