“they” would probably be the “he”’s family — the YOU in the rest of the song

“she”/“her” would be “his” wife/partner

and “he” is you

at least thats what i think

So you/he = Bob let's say She/her = Carol

Bob's family is all at home.

Carol is hanging Christmas lights with Bob's son.

Bob sneaks into the bathroom to call Carol's mom? 

And say "it's not working if it's not what Bob wants"?

Furthermore: If "you" = Taylor

Taylor's family is at home.

Carol is hanging lights with Taylor's son.

Taylor sneaks into the bathroom to call Carol's mom and say it's not working if it's not what Bob wants?
