lyrics

I’m a baby born
On the bullet train
Speeding off to debt
It was pre-arranged
Food network on and I’m passed out
Life’s so short but can’t shake a small doubt
I’m a baby born
On the bullet train
Speeding off to debt debt
It was pre-arranged
Food network on and I’m passed out
Life’s so short but can’t shake a small doubt

Going into Best Buy looking for a deal
Looking for a way for this broken heart to heal
My salesman is Derek he knows just how I feel
It’s the first conversation that I’ve had that feels real
Might buy a flat screen just to get to know you
Pulled up wearing long-johns, winter gloves, and toe shoes
Your more than a salesman
You got an Etsy store
I wanna know you
I wanna learn more
You sell replicas
Of pirate stuff
On your Etsy store
You’re looking buff
You look at me
You say "enough"
I gotta talk to you
you gotta know the truth

I’m a baby born
On the bullet train
Speeding off to debt debt
It was pre arranged
Food network on and I’m passed out
Life’s so short but can’t shake a small doubt
Looking at yourself like I might live forever
Even if you could would you even spare the effort
Ina Garten, Sandra Lee, could they be so clever
Going into surgery but my hearts severed

Never want to let go of a present day
Even if it’s worse than every other memory
Even if it’s worse than what you just told me
Even if it’s worse than what you just told me
