Texting Lyric Prank on Peter

Texts from Ned are italicized - texts from Peter are in bold.

The video opens to Harley and Ned sitting in a living room that hasn't been seen before. It's a bit on the small side, but it looks cozy. 

"Hey guys, welcome back to the Ironfam," Harley says. "We're pranking Peter today." 

"There was a trend going on for a while," Ned adds. "Where people texted like, their ex or their current partner the lyrics to a song, to see what they said. We're gonna be doing that to Peter, but in, like, a friendship way."

"So I don't know if any of you know this song," Harley shrugs. "It's called Pray For You, and it's by Jaron and the Long Road. It's a pretty funny song, and we're just gonna be texting the lyrics to Peter."

"In case you're wondering," Ned says. "Harley and I are at my house right now, and Peter is back at the tower. So… that would be why we're in a place you've never seen and why Peter's not here."

The screen is split in two. One one side is Ned and Harley. On the other is a screen recording of Ned's phone, open to a Snapchat conversation with Peter. The previous conversation has been blurred out. 

"You got the lyrics?" Ned asks Harley, who's also holding his phone. 

"Yeah," Harley tilts the screen towards Ned, who glances back and forth at it while typing. 

I haven't been to church

Since I don't remember when. 

"Ok, now we just wait for him to respond," Ned shrugs, locking his phone and setting it down on the couch beside him.

"He's typing!" Ned exclaims, picking up his phone. 

"About time," Harley rolls his eyes. "It's only been about twenty minutes." 

Ned wtf

You don't go to church

Ned quickly types out a reply. 

Things were going great until they fell apart again

Peter replies quickly this time. 

You good?

Harley snickers. 

So I listened to the preacher as he told me what to do

B*** you never listen

Ned hovers for a moment, glancing at the lyrics on Harley's phone, but Peter begins typing again, so he pauses. 

Ok but what did he say tho

Ned and Harley both break out into laughter. 

"'Ned, I know you don't go to church and never listen and don't have a preacher,'" Harley says, imitating Peter's voice. "'But what did your nonexistent preacher say?'"

"I mean, I would be curious if Peter randomly started texting me about talking to a preacher," Ned shrugs. "Considering he also does not go to church, doesn't have a preacher, and never listens."

Harley laughs again. "Fair." 

He said you can't go hating others who have done wrong to you

Peter's reply is immediate. 

Pfft yes you can? 

I mean depending on what they did

The boys snort. 

"That's true," Harley mumbles, while Ned types out the reply. 

Sometimes we get angry

But we must not condemn

Ig that's true? 

What are you talking about lol

"He's so confused," Ned mutters, amusement in his voice. "He thinks I've lost my mind." 

"You probably have," Harley shrugs. "Considering you thought this would be good content." 

"This is good content," Ned says absentmindedly, typing again. 

Let the good lord do his job

You just pray for them

I mean sound advice ig?

Ned reads the next line, and giggles madly the entire time he types it out, while Harley watches and rolls his eyes. 

I pray your breaks go out running down a hill

Peter's reply is, again, immediate. 

Ned wtf?????

I pray a flower pot falls from a window sill

And knocks you in the head like I'd like to

Wait

"S***," Ned mutters. "I think he figured it out." 

"Has he heard this song before?" Harley asks. "I thought we picked a song he wouldn't have heard?" 

"I thought so too," Ned says, as Peter types again. 

Ned I'm doing homework I don't have time for lyric pranks you dork

"S***," Ned mutters again. 

You know that song?

I've heard it like once or twice, didn't know the opening

I DO however know the chorus

"Damnit," Ned mutters, as he types out just that. 

Damnit.

K go do homework ig

Is this for the Ironfam

Is this seriously the best you could come up with

This was funny!

"See, even Peter agrees with me," Harley says, the screen record disappearing from the screen. 

Ned types out one last response to Peter, before putting his phone away. 

"You and Peter just don't know what good content is," he says confidently. 

"Or maybe you don't?"

"So that prank didn't work out as well as we'd hoped," Ned sighs. 

"Yeah, well, you should like and subscribe anyway," Harley says. "Cuz Peter's birthday is coming up, and he's turning eighteen and we've got a fun plan. Everyone go block Tony, you'll know why soon."

"Oh, yeah, I forgot to talk about that." 

"I know, Ned, that's why I did it instead."

"Like and subscribe to join the Ironfam if you want to see more of… this!" Ned says enthusiastically. "See you all in a few days for Peter's birthday!"

"See ya," Harley salutes the camera.
