[Verse 1] Arriving home from the craziest day And there's no meal that we think we'd want to make The thought of leftovers makes my stomach feel sick Need something good but that something isn't quick [Pre-Chorus] And you didn't wanna cook it home 'Cause we didn't think anything was remotely appetizing Now we're realizing That we probably should have made a plan 'Cause this week is halfway through We know this budget's blown out That's when we go and eat out This restaurant's nice but we spend too much on food How in the world does it cost this much for two? But now if we plan for what's in store We can save for so much more And now we know It's cheaper cooking at our home [Chorus] 'Cause if you like the way it tastes so much Then maybe we should budget more for food But that's insane, let's save up for a house A car and probably retirement too [Verse 2] And when we planned to have dinner with some friends We had to choose to go out or eat in But we know all our favorite restaurants aren't cheap But I'm too tired to go buy groceries [Pre-Chorus] And you didn't wanna cook it home 'Cause we didn't think anything was remotely appetizing Now we're realizing That we probably should have made a plan 'Cause this week is halfway through We know this budget's blown out That's when we go eat out This restaurant's nice but we spend too much on food And how in the world does it cost this much for two? But now if we plan for what's in store We can save for so much more And now we know It's cheaper cooking at our home [Chorus] 'Cause if you like the way it tastes so much Then maybe we should budget more for food But that's insane, let's save up for our kids A dog and probably retirement too [Verse 3] For all the times that we packed a sack lunch It worked so well and it just saved us so much But now I woke up late and looking in the fridge Should not eat out 'cause it's not budgeted [Chorus] 'Cause if you like the way it tastes so much Then maybe we should budget more for food But that's insane, let's save up for that IPhone 7, maybe a MacBook 2 'Cause if you like the way it tastes so much Then maybe we should budget more for food But that's insane, let's save up for lakefront cabin And possibly a schooner too
