Sabrina Carpenter may have told the “Nonsense” outro that it might be a fun idea to stay inside throughout her tour this year. During the opening night of the Short n’ Sweet trek in Columbus, Ohio, it looked like Carpenter is considering dropping it from her performances, at least right now. She performed “Nonsense” in the middle of her set list and didn’t perform a special outro for the concert, like what she’s done for many of her performances of the song. Vulture has reached out to Carpenter’s reps to confirm if the outro is donezo for good. According to a Genius list, she’s done about 118 different “Nonsense” outros since 2022. That’s a lot of nonsense. But we all plea: Please, please, please don’t get rid of the “Nonsense” outro, Sabrina! Here’s hoping it’s on layaway as a Christmas gift.

If it is over for good, here’s a parting gift for Ms. Carpenter, who let the silly little verse die on the cross for our sins:

Didn’t sing the “Nonsense” outro in Ohio
Sabrina got ’em missing, call us Nemo
At least give a proper good-bye-o
