Hey 02:01
Hey you need to wake up right away You are in a nightmare you need to be awake You need to wake up none of this is real You need to stop dreaming about 90’s artist Seal It’s the largest deal you can ever make The longer you wait the larger your prostate Make no mistake things can get worse Face it your complacent to losing in divorce You’re not getting enough vitamin intake You stay in bed all day feel your hymen ache You long for the touch of an eggplant emoji You play mortal kombat 2 just to feel toasty Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey You need to wake up Wake up right away Hey you need to wake up right away Welcome back Cotter you’ve overstayed Stop playing the game you’ll be stuck forever Maybe you’ll have better luck next September You need to wake up been asleep for a month You need to stop counting sheep all at once You’re trapped in a movie need to leave your scene You’re trapped in a coma I’m your fever dream You’re not getting enough vitamin intake You stay in bed all day feel your hymen ache You long for the touch of an eggplant emoji You play mortal kombat 2 just to hear toasty Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey Hey hey hey hey You need to wake up Wake up right away

I think I really really really lost you, wack I really really really really want you back This ain’t delivery this ain’t digorno I’m really sad without you you know You were so crisp you were so fresh So warm and inviting you were the best Did you inspire well damned if I know You were hard to decipher like a scrambled porno But don’t blow your wads on these beef cakes Scrambled food porn might seem depraved You don’t play you even got pizza You accept MasterCard you accept Visa When ever I was hungry you were holding it down Perverted to flirt with the inverted Golden Corral If it doesn’t add up you need to do the math I loved you as much as pickachu loved ash I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I really want your mushrooms inside me I miss your floral carpet fluorescent lighting I miss sighting that last bit of blackest olives I scoop it up super rough saladaholic \I'm the saddest I called it salad mourning Gone are the days of buffet breakfast Sunday morning That one day learning of your utter demise My heart stopped got blubbery and I cried I know it’s just salad but what can I say It’s just not the same got me feeling some type of way I do say I miss stacking my plate overflowing my tray over stuffing my face I miss sitting inside you take two hours to eat I miss chilli cornbread mixing you with sour cream I’m a cauliflower fiend sometimes it be like that Wish I could see you next thyme wish I could be ripe back I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon I think I got the broken heart syndrome Sweet Tomatoes is gone it was too soon

Sitting around found you’ll be waiting a long time Waiting to shine you burnt out at the wrong time This is fine when you intertwine failures and excuses Throwing up deuces mood is selfish abuses Self help muses you never ever had a single one Remember being happy when you weren’t single once Remember clapping because they bring you brunch Why’d you think it was a good idea being punk Why you in a funk that never ever stops Why can’t you do something simple like grocery shop You were mostly goth through all of your twenties You were mostly washed up when you moved out the country Always thought running away was the answer and solution Thought life would be better as a dancer prostitution You were always high thought you’d feel no pain All you did is blow your money bought you real cocaine Sitting in the life boat hating to cry Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating your life Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating to cry Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating your life Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting around waiting for things to get better Existential dread is hitting harder than ever Why is the end of the weekend biggest endeavor Why does simply speaking your mind take forever You’re staying in debt for something ain’t your fault You never started up in fear your business would halt Mere prisons of salt you’re drowning in the ocean Just doubting yourself doubting your notions You do things you hate to get your business clout higher Wear a disguise around those you love Mrs Doubtfire You’re a bad liar but you do it anyways You know all the drugs are no longer a petty phase Amaze yourself just by getting out of bed Crazy self doubt and dread never getting out your head Laying in a sea of salt cause you stay down and cry Waiting in the life boat where you lay down to die Sitting in the life boat hating to cry Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating your life Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating to cry Sitting in the life boat waiting to die Sitting in the life boat hating your life Sitting in the life boat waiting to die

I lost my mind at the video arcade I told myself everything would be okay But that was a lie I was just losing it at home I haven’t left my house in months I’m so alone I picture all the things I used to do last year Like going to the bowling alley to grab a beer But now I never leave the house because of the fear I don’t want to get sick again so I steer clear The world is burning down to the ground today It’s not the news you wanted to hear me say It’s not the head line you expected to hear But maybe we will have better luck next year I know we just want to have this year come to a close But what if next year is some how worse how will we know I suppose we can always hope for the best But what if who you vote for doesn’t get any respect What did you expect things to really go your way If you still living in America might be silly to stay Or maybe we can just leave the planet entirely If my boss doesn’t like it well damn it he can fire me I’m leaving this plateau you know I just want to leave Live with alien hybrid grays I just want to believe And I don’t care if the place is a lot colder Abduct me from this planet I’m agent fox mulder The world is burning down to the ground today It’s not the news you wanted to hear me say It’s not the head line you expected to hear But maybe we will have better luck next year
