Emotional Rent Control
Lyrics
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
Break down the boxes and put the lid on the trash
I'm feeling good, but I'm sure it will pass
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
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
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
Break down the boxes and put the lid on the trash
I'm feeling good, but I'm sure it will pass
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
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
