John Mulaney - And Also With You lyrics

I grew up Catholic i don’t
Go to church anymore
But, I went on Christmas Eve with my parents
’cause
You know how you lie to your parents so… we
Go into the church and I was like
"I got this under control"

And then I got schooled because they
Introduced a bunch of new shit
No, I was going through Mass
And I was batting, like, 400 and then in
The middle of Mass, the priest said, "Peace
Be with you" And everyone said
"And with your spirit" And I was
The one pre-Y2K asshole going
"And also with you what? Huh?
What? Huh? What? When? When?"

For those of you that aren’t Catholic
I don’t mean to exclude you, even though we
Love to exclude you
But… There’s a part in church
Where the priest says
"Peace be with you" And for many, many years
We all said

"And also with you"

Very good
But they changed it to "And with your spirit"
Because that’s what needed revamping
In the Catholic
Church that was the squeaky wheel that needed
The grease in Rome, they were like
"Let’s see what-a problems can we
Solve? Problem one no"

I’m actually glad they changed that
Though i never liked "And also with
You" I always found that
Clunky "And also with you" That’s
Not how you talk

"Have a nice day"

"And also you having one"

It’s just a little bit wrong
Isn’t it? It’s just a little
Off like, when someone’s like, "How
Are you?" And you’re like
"Nothing much" And it sort of makes sense

Never begin a sentence with "And also"
You just immediately sound caught
Off-guard it sounds like if at
The first church ever, like, they
Weren’t expecting it like, the
Priest was like, "Hey, this is the
First time we’ve ever had church
I just wanna say, ‘Peace be with you'"

And they were like… "What? Oh uh
Yeah and also you should have some"

"Hey, that’s good let’s keep that for 2
000 years and then change it to trick John"
