Cheekface Emotional Rent Control
[Verse 1]
I'm sorry for what I did with your heartfelt letter
What's the WiFi login and password in heaven?
We're living paycheck to paycheck to paycheck to paycheck
Saving for a big scorpion neck tat on the soul
I am eating like it's Thanksgiving, but without the gratitude
Shouting fire at therapy and at Panda Express
Is it a business or a hobby? A hobby or a business?
Let's replace all the vowels with asterisks
[Pre-Chorus]
Break down the boxes and put the lid on the trash
I'm feeling good, but I'm sure it will pass
[Chorus]
We need emotional rent control, we're changing our minds
We need to put our brand new phones in a bucket of rice
We need low interest rates to refinance our jealousy and envy
We need Prudential insurance for when our insides are empty
We need state-mandated disclosures of people who aren't nice
We need multiple choice tests and a small side of fries
We need a giant freaking Snickers bar full of ice cream
We need emotional rent control and real-ass intimacy
[Post-Chorus]
Venmo me when you get home so I know you are safe
A phone call from Unknown, I answer just to have someone to talk to
[Verse 2]
So much of life can be viewed through the metaphor of dance:
Love, loss, war, fate, fear, protesting nuclear plants
Feathers in a duck's mouth from eating the other ducks
I love to touch things a lot of people have touched
I am young, dumb and full of psychiatric medication
I have watched every single episode of PBS NewsHour and now I'm going on vacation
Can you believe this could be more interesting than human interaction together?
I'm sorry for what I did with your heartfelt letter
[Pre-Chorus]
Break down the boxes and put the lid on the trash
I'm feeling good, but I'm sure it will pass
[Chorus]
We need emotional rent control, we're changing our minds
We need to put our brand new phones in a bucket of rice
We need low interest rates to refinance our jealousy and envy
And we need State Farm insurance for when our stomachs are empty
We need state-mandated disclosures of people who aren't nice
We need multiple choice tests and a small side of fries
We need a giant freaking Snickers bar full of ice cream
We need emotional rent control and real-ass intimacy
[Post-Chorus]
Venmo me when you get home so I know you are safe
A phone call from Unknown, I answer because I have a few things I'm trying to work through
