Lyrics

I don't care what the neighbors may say
I'm eating French Toast for dinner
With cheap rosé
Can't untie this knot
It's tangled and torn
Makes me wish that I’d
never been born

Fugido e mal pago
Don't kiss and tell
Small town Iagos
They poison the well
Can't untie this knot
It's tangled and torn
Makes me wish that I ’d
never been born
 
So hard to sleep
in this old town
Gotta lasso the moon
pull it down
Grab the knife
Rosemary
Sacrifice
is pretty
darn scary
 
$#@!&* and badly paid
$#@!&* and badly paid
$#@!&* and badly paid
Send me on my way

$#@!&* and badly paid
$#@!&* and badly paid
$#@!&*and badly paid
Send me on my way
