It's gone 2:30 and I'm not up yet
You're home early and unexpected
I'm sorry the house is such a tip
I meant to do housework but didn't get 'round to it
I know it looks a lot like I've just been lying in bed
I've been working really hard writing songs in my head
See that ambitious look in my eyes?
This week I mop floors, next week I make fries
It's not gonna be like this forever
It's just until I get my sh** together
Dinner with your parents is tough to get through
Avoiding the question "what is it that you do?"
But, to be fair
No one who works in a chip shop wants to be there
There's no money on my credit card, it's an awkward situation
When I tried to pay the restaurant bill with just my imagination
See that ambitious look in my eyes?
Last week I mopped floors, this week I make fries
It's not gonna be like this forever
It's just until I get my sh** together
It's hard to not let your ambitions fall flat
Coming home every night smelling like chip fat
There's a nicotine stain on my brain
From trying to turn my life 'round again
See that ambitious look in my eyes?
Any problems, I take them in my stride
It's not gonna be like this forever
It's just until I get my sh** together
See that ambitious look in my eyes?
To work part-time, I put some money aside
It's not gonna be like this forever
It's just until I get my sh** together
