Kristin Chenoweth - My New Philosophy Lyrics

Sally: Oh yeah? That’s what you think!

Schroeder: What?

Sally: That’s my new philosophy. Oh yeah? That’s what you think!

Schroeder: Well, why are you telling me?

Sally: What?

Schroeder: WHY are you telling me?

Schroeder: Some take a lifetime!

Sally: Mine take a minute!

Spoken:

Schroeder: But Sally, anything that takes only a minute can’t be very lasting! For instance, Beethoven took over two years to complete his brilliant Ninth Symphony.

Sally: No!

Schroeder: I can’t stand it!

Sally: *In whiney voice
