It’s hard to motivate yourself to exercise
I can feel my muscle mass depleting
Can’t say I lost a six pack
I can say my wallet is receding
It’s bleeding pictures of shitty old white dudes
Thankfully, they bought me some tampons
I got a few if you need some
Don’t think we needed Chipotle three times this week
It’s alright I’ll burn it off in my sleep
Can I cash osmosis in for the gym
'cause these stress dreams got me sweating
Chased by my unresolved problems
I know we all got some
But don’t expect me to say them
Can’t pay my bills on time
My dentist thinks I am dead
My house is dirty
I play Skyrim instead
I call my mom everyday
She takes care of me
Hey look I tried—where’s my participation trophy?
Can’t pay my bills on time
My dentist thinks I am dead
My house is dirty
I play Skyrim instead
I call my mom everyday
She takes care of me
Hey look I tried—where’s my participation trophy?
They turned my power off
And I never called my mom back
Sorry mom, I couldn’t even if I wanted to
I drank my last lukewarm Natty Boh
I think Connor might be pregnant, oh no
Sorry babe, you couldn’t have one anyway
I just wanna provide for my cats
Can’t pay my bills on time
My dentist thinks I am dead
My house is dirty
I play Skyrim instead
I call my mom everyday
She takes care of me
Hey look I tried—where’s my participation trophy?

Alvvays has always been great, but with this album they took it to the next level. Every one of these songs is lodged in my brain now, permanently (in a good way). s. moxley
