the following lyrics are a preliminary transcription based on live recordings. official lyrics will be available as soon as the song is released. stay tuned!
[verse 1]
hope my mother mentioned (inaudible) dance with me
i’d like to spend a while around the copperwood tree
there’s something about her eyes, i think her roots are rotten
this must be the reason she wears her hair up in knots
[pre-chorus]
oh no, this is so embarr-ssing
oh, the p-ssing fits
crying on the doorsteps and teachers losing grip
some of them are so out of style, i cannot save them
(inaudible) gave them
[chorus]
keep the good weed near the bed
light the wall, check the lip
dim the dark a little lower
hide your back from (inaudible)
give the gift, then fix your hair
you have to get this turtleneck
[verse 2]
all them people sell things from bathrooms of the rich
they try to turn them off but everything they switch to
is just another man, sh-tty suits, everybody’s cheering for
this will be the motherf-cker we’ve been waiting years for
[pre-chorus]
oh no, this is so embarr-ssing
oh, the p-ssing fits
crying on the doorsteps and teachers losing grip
some of them are so out of style, i cannot save them
this must be the death that my salvation gave them
[chorus]
keep the good weed near the bed
light the wall, check the lip
dim the dark a little lower
hide your back from (inaudible)
give the gift, then fix your hair
you have to get this turtleneck
[guitar solo]
[chorus]
keep the good weed near the bed
light the wall, check the lip
dim the dark a little lower
hide your back from (inaudible)
give the gift, then fix your hair
you have to get this turtleneck
