Phillip Morris wouldn’t love this
But if he knew me nowadays I think he’d get it
City names that I don’t recognize
Pit stops merged with McDonald’s merged with your mother tried
And I hate Richmond at this time of day
Right lane ends left lane implodes
I hate fishing for something to say
Right lane ends blistered lymph nodes
Are you smiling cuz you’re happy or are you smiling cuz you’re stoned
And you OD’d in the corner of the motel balcony
Teenagers spit gum on you
Teenagers spit gum on me
Our parents still have hope for us
But they’ll give up when they realize we’re all fucked
Pedestrians that I don’t recognize
Peach pits rotting sideways rotting all our insides
And I hate talking like this kind of way
Right answer to the wrong question
I hate walking but not getting away
Right to think I’ve never left them
Are they gonna convince you to stay just tell me where and when
And you OD’d in the corner of the motel balcony
Teenagers spit gum on you
Teenagers spit gum on me
Catching another crow in your butterfly net
Wedging yourself into the space between my wall and bed
Ragged busted toenails all tangled in the carpet
I’m gonna be a legend like your mother always wanted
And if you spit then you spit
If you spit then you spit
If you spit then
You OD’d in the corner of the motel balcony
Teenagers throw rocks at you
Teenagers throw rocks at me
