Could you imagine what a morning in the Jolie-Pitt household would be like?! Us neither.

But while on Ellen (airing Thursday), Brad Pitt tries to explain what life is like for the clan as best he can when answering Ellen DeGeneres' question about keeping up with the energy of six kids.

And what better way to create a vivid image in our minds than a movie reference?

"Yeah, did you ever see the movie [One Flew Over] the Cuckoo's Nest? That's morning time in our house," he tells the host.

Basically, it's pretty crazy. So how does the famous actor find time to keep the romance with Angelina Jolie alive? Do the couple leave the kids for a month and take off on an exotic vacation? Hardly.

"It's called a hotel. You just, you gotta get outta the house. You gotta leave."

Not bad advice, my friend.

Now, a question that constantly comes up is if when the couple are going to get married. Well, they've both openly explained that marriage will not be an option for them until it is a legalized sanction for everyone in this country.

"We live in this great country that is about freedoms, that's defined by our freedoms and equality, and yet, we allow this discrimination to go on every day. That's not what we're about, that's not what makes us great. And until that is reversed, I just don't get it. It make no sense to me," Pitt says.

Though, Brad also shares that the "kids are puttin' on the heat," and confesses, "I don't know what the future holds."
