This song reminds me of some couples’ typical exchange at dinnertime:
Wife: Prices are so high! We can’t afford beef this time. I just got fish. I hope you like it.
Husband: Hmm…
W: Also we haven’t bought all the kids’ school supplies.
H: Hmm…
W: School bus fees went up, too.
H: Hmm…
W: When will you check the leak in the bathroom?
H: Hmm…
W: Have you been listening? I’ve been talking and talking here. You never listen! (Walks out.)
H: ???
