There Is Life Outside Your Apartment Lyrics

    BRIAN
    Princeton!

    PRINCETON
    Yeah.

    BRIAN
    Listen, buddy, nobody’s seen ya for two weeks.
    What’s up with that?

    PRINCETON
    I went to work for a temp agency, and they
    fired me for being too depressing on the phone.
    I maxed out my cards, I’m two months behind
    in rent, I totally messed up my personal life.
    Oh, and Brian - I still haven’t found my purpose!

    BRIAN
    All right. Get off your ass and stop worrying!
    Everyone’s getting together to mess around the city today.

    PRINCETON
    Have fun!

    BRIAN
    When I say everyone, that includes you!

    There is life outside your apartment.
    I know it’s hard to conceive.
    But there’s life outside your apartment.
    And you’re only gonna see it if you leave.

    There is cool shit to do,
    But it can’t come to you,
    And who knows, dude
    You might even score!

    There is life outside your apartment.
    But you gotta open the door!

    PRINCETON
    No, thanks, I’m staying in!

    BRIAN
    Don’t tell me I gotta force you.

    PRINCETON
    Sorry!

    BRIAN
    All right, everyone! He’s resisting!

    ALL BUT PRINCETON
    There is life outside...
    There is life outside...
    There is life outside...
    There is life outside your apartment!
    There’s a pigeon
    Squashed on the street.

    CHRISTMAS EVE
    Ew.

    BRIAN
    There’s a girl passing by

    NICKY
    No I think it’s a guy

    ALL BUT PRINCETON
    And a homeless man
    Who only wants to
    Buy something to eat!

    Sorry, can’t help you.

    We could go to the zoo!

    TREKKIE MONSTER
    Pick up girls at NYU!

    BRIAN
    We could sit in the park smoking pot!

    CHRISTMAS EVE
    Or not.

    ALL BUT PRINCETON
    There is life outside your apartment.

    PRINCETON
    Well, I guess I’ll give it a shot.

    ALL
    There is life outside your apartment.
    I know -
    There is life outside your apartment.

    VOICE #1
    I’m gonna jump!

    ALL
    Don’t do it!

    VOICE #1
    Okay

    ALL
    There is cool shit to do
    But it can’t come to you
    So come on -

    VOICE #2
    Get out of the way asshole!

    PRINCETON
    Fuck you!

    ALL
    There is life outside your apartment.
    Oh, you never know
    What’s around the bend.
    You could win the lotto
    Or make a friend...

    GUYS
    Take her home to see your apartment!

    LUCY
    Do you wanna feel special?
    I can see that you do.
    Well, I can make you feel
    Special.
    If you let me feel you.

    GUYS
    She’ll feel you!

    LUCY
    Where’s your pad?

    PRINCETON
    Not too far.

    GUYS
    We could call you a car.

    PRINCETON
    We’ll be fine, thank you! See ya!

    CHRISTMAS EVE
    Hope you don’t get gonorrhea!

    ALL
    There is life outside your apartment.

    PRINCETON & LUCY
    But now it’s time to go home.

    ALL
    There is life outside your apartment.

    TREKKIE MONSTER
    Me going home now.

    PRINCETON & LUCY
    It’s time to go home!

    TREKKIE MONSTER
    That’s where me gonna go!

    LUCY
    I can make you feel special

    TREKKIE MONSTER
    That’s where me gonna go!

    ALL
    There is life outside your apartment.

    TREKKIE MONSTER
    Me going home now,
    That’s where me gonna go!

    PRINCETON & LUCY
    But now it’s time to go home

    TREKKIE MONSTER
