"How's it go?"
(singing)
"This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine.
This little light of mine, I'm gonna--"
"Kelly."
"--let it shine! Let it shine, let it shine, let it--"
"Kelly!"
"Sorry. It's such a catchy tune!"
"Yeah, but it's the second verse I'm wondering about."
"Hide it under a bush? Oh NO! I'm gonna let it shine.
Hide it under a bush? Oh NO! I'm gonna let it shine."
"Yeah okay, so that's what I thought it was, too. Bush. But I found out today that it's bushel. 'Hide it under a bushel? NO!'"
"What?! Bushel? Who says bushel?!"
"Really."
"That doesn't make any sense."
"I know."
"Of course, hiding it under a bush doesn't make a whole lot of sense, either."
"Yeah, I always thought that was a dangerous idea."
"I'd always figured that's how the burning bush came to be."
