Magnolia Lyrics

Did you know 65% of UK homes contain at least one magnolia wall?
I bet you didn't
Incoming

It's a bombardment of external influence
I got a sneaky suspicion
It's no coincidence
Giant faces smiling at us
Call the number on the side of the bus
For a chance to be attractive and care-free

M-A-G-N-O-L-I-A
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it)
M-A-G, no, don't do what they say
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it)

It's gotta be, gotta be
It's gotta be, gotta be perfect
It's gotta be, gotta be

Anything that I need and anything that I like
On the two-by-four-inch touch screen
On my tap and swipe crack-pipe
But now my senses are under attack
Another minute that I'm not getting back
I'd give it all just to be attractive and care-free

M-A-G-N-O-L-I-A
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it)
M-A-G, no, don't do what they say
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it)

It's gotta be, gotta be
It's gotta be, gotta be perfect
It's gotta be, gotta be
It's gotta be, gotta be perfect

I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
Watch me paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
I'm gon' paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
Watch me paint my walls (It's gotta be, gotta be)
Magnolia (It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)

(It's gotta be, gotta be)
(It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
(It's gotta be, gotta be)
(It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
(It's gotta be, gotta be)
(It's gotta be, gotta be perfect)
(It's gotta be, gotta be)
