lyrics

Ten dollar shots and a gin martini
Kim Kardashian in a bikini
Cigarette smoke and a quarter pounder
Another year down and a little rounder

It's a constant attack of alternative facts
It's a world we can never get back

Netflix, Hulu, Facebook, memes
Our generation's amphetamines
We post online, artificial glory,
We only leave the house for the Insta story

It's a constant attack of alternative facts
It's a world we can never get back

Politics, terrorism, train delays
Wanna pack up my things and hit the highway
Kavanaugh, Spacey, Casey Affleck
Justified with mental gymnastics

Then there's the streetlight on your skin
The bed we're in slows everything
Drown out the noise for a while, everything's fine
Group text the boys for a while, everything's fine
Shit talk your job for a while, everything's fine
The subway's a mob for a while, everything's fine
My mood's on the edge of a knife, but everything's fine
and you are the love of my life, everything's fine
You are asleep next to me, and everything's fine
and I"m right where I wanted to be, and everything's fine
