lyrics

I bought myself a new houseplant today
I needed something to take care of
A living creature in desperate pain
That isn’t too expensive

Picked the saddest one I could find
At the checkout line
And I knew that it would die if I didn’t bring it home
So you bet I brought it home

Hey, you what’s it like to be free?
Hey, you what’s it like to finally feel the breeze?
I know that you don’t give a shit about me
But I’m the one who saved your life
And I’d do it again

Woke up this morning and
Turned on the news
This channel loves itself a dictator
Choked down some Prozac, gotta take it with food
Or else you might get sick later

Go back to watching democracy
Turn more and more rigor-mortissey
I wanna drink but I can’t
Hey, you know what time it is?
It’s time to water the plant

Hey, you what’s it like to be free?
Hey, you what’s it like to finally feel the breeze?
I know that you don’t give a shit about me
But I’m the one who saved your life
Yes, I’m the one who saved your life
And I’d do it again
