TONY:
But whatcha gonna do sitting 'round in your house like...
I gotta wait on a call 'bout the job said they call at five, it's eight
And my mom's on the other line
Wondering why I ain't call her back today
And my kids in my ear like I can't hear pulling on my last nerve
And my man said he sex me but he's still at work (he lying)

You got your problems, I got a bottle, let's wash it all away
I know you're crying,
Your bills are high 'n your checks are coming late
I got a question, all of this stress, did it ever solve a thing?
'Cause whether you do, or whether you don't
Life goin' keep happening
Either way
Either way
Either way
Either way

Had plans with your best friend since she got a man she be MIA
Talkin 'bout how
Tryna go to sleep 'cause you're tired of this long ass day
Yeah I know it's cold so go get your coat,
Imma call a cab, we out
Cause there ain't no excuses
Stop messin' around

You got your problems, I got a bottle, let's wash it all away
I know you're crying,
Your bills are high 'n your checks are coming late
I got a question, all of this stress, did it ever solve a thing?
'Cause whether you do, or whether you don't
Life gon' keep happening
Either way
Either way
Either way
Either way

Either way

TONY, EL-J, AND JULIET:
So whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do,
Whatcha gonna do, sitting round in your house like
Either way
So whatcha gonna do,
Whatcha gonna do, sitting round in your house like
Either way
Life keeps happenin'
Life keeps happenin'
Life keeps happenin'

Truthfully, Tony's smooth, jazzy song was just the pick-me-up El-J and Juliet needed in such dire circumstances. They were just about to thank him before all three of them heard chipping noises come from the wall with the only available barred window of the cell. Then, all of the sudden, the entire wall exploded outwards, shattering brick and mortar over the grass outside.
