karen jonas - buy lyrics

got a coffee percolator
put a dollar in the jukebox
i’m going to the graveyard
to see the fax machines
bought a lot of plastic
put it in the trash can
made a couple dollars
then i traded them for cheap
i don’t work here to have a good time
i work here to make money
i showed up without makeup
thinking you wouldn’t come by
let’s go out for pizza
there’s things i need to tell you
let’s go to a bar downtown
and have a glass of wine

once i heard a story
about a happy traveler
wandered round the country
and never spent a dime
ate apples off of fruit trees
and talked to all the people
i look into a magazine
to see what i could buy
i’ll need some boots for hiking
i’ll need a travel backpack
did you know they have filters
that make water out of mud?
it’s an awful lot to carry
maybe i’ll rent a camper
when it comes right down to it yea
i’ll probably just stay home
once i saw a movie
about a gorgeous artist
somehow all her credit cards
were paid by handsome men
she bought a little cottage
she wallpapered her kitchen
i’m gonna fix my kitchen too
but i can’t get out of bed
now i’m sitting on the sofa
the trucks are on the highway
the fish are in the water
and the planes are in the sky
i want to buy adventure
i want to buy an island
i want a handsome gentlemen
to hold me when i cry

there are dishes on the counter
there are dishes in my bedroom
there’s laundry in the living room
and whiskey on the rocks
today i have been useless
my life has been a circus
my best friend says i’m healing
but i think that i’m just lost
she says it’s from my childhood
it’s probably just anxiety
i think that i need therapy
i need to make a change
i want a purple bedspread
i wanna get a porch swing
i wanna buy a la+z+boy
and sleep away my days
once i read a novel
about two star+crossed lovers
the whole world fell to pieces
when he gazed into her eyes
now that’s iconic sparkle
her eyeliner was flawless
i look into a magazine
to see what i could buy
