Break Out the Champagne
Break Out the Champagne: Embracing Life's Shitshow Moments
Lyrics
Talkin' between bathroom stalls
Talking in private, possibly about serious matters
Kelly said the world would end tonight
Referring to a prediction that the world will end
That we'd be ashes in apocalyptic light
Expecting destruction and imagining being reduced to ashes
I said, "Break out the champagne
Optimistically suggesting to celebrate despite the grim outlook
If we won't be seein' tomorrow
Encouraging to celebrate now, as there may be no tomorrow
Let's get on with the shitshow
Embracing the chaotic nature of life as a "shitshow"
Let's get on with the show"
Expressing readiness to face whatever comes next
Somewhere above the Newfoundland Sea
Describing a location above the Newfoundland Sea
Pilot said we'd lost an engine
Revealing a potential crisis during a flight
In a split-second I made an executive decision
Making a quick decision in a critical moment
I said, "Break out the champagne
Repeating the call to celebrate despite the challenges
Everybody look out below
Encouraging everyone to pay attention to what's happening
Let's get on with the shitshow
Reiterating the acceptance of life's chaos as a "shitshow"
Here goes a toast, Adios!"
Toasting and saying farewell, using "Adios"
This mornin' Love told her he was leavin'
Describing a conversation where someone expresses leaving
He said they'd be better as friends
Stating a common breakup reason, suggesting an amicable parting
It's no one's fault, the heart wants what it wants
Recognizing the uncontrollable nature of romantic feelings
And then she thought, "I'm rock 'n' roll, and you're golf"
Highlighting a contrast in personalities using rock 'n' roll and golf
Break out the champagne
Repeating the call to celebrate, indicating personal contemplation
I've been thinkin' the same thing myself
Acknowledging personal reflection and a shared sentiment
Might as well
Deciding to celebrate regardless of the circumstances
Break out the champagne
Repeating the call to celebrate in the face of uncertainty
If this's really how it's gonna go
Accepting the unfolding events, expressing readiness
Let's get on with the shitshow
Embracing life's chaos, reiterating the "shitshow" metaphor
Let's get on with the show
Expressing a willingness to face whatever comes next
Adios
Bidding farewell, using "Adios" again
