Thats When You Break by The Lonely Island Lyrics
It's the night of the show, your sketch is killin'
The audience is having the time of their lives
When suddenly, it hits you: a case of the giggles
And you know you just can't hold it inside
And that's when you break
Let the smile cover your face
And that's when you break
The audience is eating it up
And that's when you break
Sometimes a sketch just ain't workin'
You're giving it your all but it isn't enough
Your jokes are falling flat and your palms are all sweaty
But you know a trick to cover it up
And that's when you break
That's how you save the day
And that's when you break
Pretend like it was a mistake, Bill
And that's when you break (Fuck you, dude)
(Love you too!) (Aww!)
What you gonna do when a sketch ain't workin'?
What you gonna do when you gotta laugh?
What you gonna do when you're just too funny?
Feels so wrong to hold it back
Little known fact: Lorne loves it when you break
Oh yeah, he goes nuts for it
Lorne is the best
Lorne!
Who's that checking out the set in between commercials?
Lorne!
Who's hanging backstage nursing a glass of white vino?
Lorne! Lorne!
You know this dude is an American treasure
His legacy will last forever, Lorne
Lorne! Lorne! Lorne! Lorne! Lorne!
Now back to the breaks!
Here's one of Ferrell and Dratch
And here's one of Farley and Spade
And here's one of Fallon and Sanz
And here's another one of Fallon and Sanz
And here's another one of Fallon and Sanz
Now, moving on to one of Fallon and Sanz
And here's a classic one from Fallon and Sanz
But we never broke (Uh, actually, that's not true)
We didn't smile in every sketch (Wasn't that kind of our thing?)
We never undermined a piece (Every time, we did)
And we also made a movie that bombed (Why would you bring that up?)
But those are the breaks (Okay, I get it, I'm gonna start singing again)
Check out these classic breaks
They remind us of the people we love
And the wonderful times we shared
You're simply the best! (That's what it is!)
(I knew I recognized you)
The audience is having the time of their lives
When suddenly, it hits you: a case of the giggles
And you know you just can't hold it inside
And that's when you break
Let the smile cover your face
And that's when you break
The audience is eating it up
And that's when you break
Sometimes a sketch just ain't workin'
You're giving it your all but it isn't enough
Your jokes are falling flat and your palms are all sweaty
But you know a trick to cover it up
And that's when you break
That's how you save the day
And that's when you break
Pretend like it was a mistake, Bill
And that's when you break (Fuck you, dude)
(Love you too!) (Aww!)
