[BIRDIE, spoken]
(Stammering) You doing a music thing? You need violin? It seems like you need violin. 

[OWEN, spoken]
Yes. I need all of it. 

[BIRDIE, spoken]
It's finally happening!

[WARD, sung]
The trees will get cut down anyway
So why bother?
Why bother?
The birds will eventually all fly away
So why bother?
Why bother?
I found it doesn't really matter what you do
One day your funding turns into a pile of poo
Looks like it's every man for himself after all

[OWEN, spoken]
And that's what it would look like if we lost hope, but, fortunately, there's lots to be hopeful about!

[OWEN and WARD, sung]
Flowers spread beauty everywhere
But why bother?
Why bother?
Trees give us shade and hеlp clean the air
But why bother?
Why bothеr?
