I JUST CALLED TO SAY
I LOVE YOU

Customer: Do you have I just called to say I love you?
Barry: Yes.
Customer: Can I have it?
Barry: No.
Customer: Why not?
Barry: Because it's tacky sentimental crap that's why. Do we look like a store that would sell that song? Do you even know your daughter, there's no way she likes that song. Oh I'm sorry, is she in a coma?
