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 be with the house
  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
  Enjoy the humour of the situation
