Fine

It started with the wine The wine The wine! We were shopping for a bottle to bring to her cousin's soirée My cousin's a sous' chef, she's very gourmet I grabbed my favorite Cabernet He's got no clue and so I say Darling, the wine The wine? The wine! They're serving monk fish, so darling the wine can't be red How 'bout this Austrian Riesling instead? Honey, you know I don't like the Riesling When have you ever seen me drink Riesling? Never, but can't you listen this once? Red wine and fish, you'll look like a dunce Fine! I'll bring the red, you bring the white That way I'll still get drunk, you'll still be right Fine Fine Fine And then there was the cab The cab! The cab We're stuck in traffic in the middle of Broadway Ten minutes we wait We're twelve blocks away, and we're already late I point out there'd be no delay If we would just turn that a-way Honey, the cab! The cab The cab Was pointed squarely down Broadway I know you're concerned, but your cousin's on Broadway So why have we turned? Darling, I know my cousin's on Broadway But there was lots of traffic on Broadway! Surely, but now in my own defense We're farther away, which doesn't make sense Fine, driver, please stop here if you would I think walking will do us both some good Fine Fine Fine We don't say anything as we're walking down Broadway It's like I'm walking next to a stranger I've had that feeling more and more, like I don't even know him But right now it's cold, and we're still in a hurry I'm not gonna stop and I'm not gonna worry We'll be fine Fine Fine And then it starts to rain My hair starts to drip My shoes are a mess My bag's getting wet And so is my dress I love the rain How everything shimmers! The wind's picking up, we've got no umbrella It dots her hair like morning dew Suddenly I start to think of the day that I first met her A bucket of snow had landed in her hair I picture her shake the snowflakes off her shoulders And somehow I want to get us back to there I want her to know that I can't bear to spend A single day without her But how can she know? How can she know? Shit, ow! My shoe, my shoe, my shoe, dammit! This is really fantastic, no really absurd And what, you just stand there, and don't say a word? Fine, I'm gonna go, we're late for my cousin God help the soul who's late for my cousin! You can stay put here out in the rain But don't leave it up to me to explain Give me the wine, don't take all day Fine then! Bring it yourself, your cabernet, Jesus! Shut up Claire and marry me! Fine! What?
