You got yr day job, didn’t think it’d be like
that
You wanted nights off—now you’re just tired
and borin-
side your head it’s only young adult fiction
It’s pretty basic, but it’s pretty goddamn
important
With your candy pants, and all your bold-
faced lies
Smoking your cigarettes, chasing your
summer nights
You opened up and sewed yrself shut
You’ve got me talkin’ to myself in the mirror
I fuckin’ hate that, I only do that when I’m
faded
Wiry frame up where you hang up your
anger
It’s getting grizzly, but we always trim this
shit down
You with your candy pants and all your
bold-faced lies
Smoking your cigarettes chasing your
summer nights
You opened up and sewed yrself shut
While you were tuckin’ your tail, you had
your nose on the rail
You opened up and sewed yourself shut
Life was checkin’ your chin so hard it left
your head spinnin’
You opened up and sewed yourself shut
I eat Totino’s while I watch my TedX’s
They make me feel smarter, but the work’s
already been done
You got me hot me taught me whiskey and
water
The damage done did—we never know
when to quit
You with your candy pants and all your
bold-faced lies
Smoking your cigarettes, chasing your
summer nights
You opened up and sewed yourself shut
While you were duckin’ your tale, you had
your nose on the rail
You opened up and sewed yourself shut
Life was checkin’ your chin so hard it left
your head spinnin’
You opened up and sewed yourself shut
