Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, listen up
Young man, there's a, there's a
Young man, he writes stories
He's a writer, a little writer boy
He falls in love with a girl
Girl already has a boyfriend
She kinda loves him back but not really
They're just really good friends, and that's fine
He understands, it's rational
Hi, what's your name?
How are you?
How's your life?
Oh, you got a man?
Are you in love?
If so, what type?
Is it just platonic, strictly just as friends
Or the type that ties you two together till tomorrows end?
If it is, disregard every time I call you pretty
Though it's meant sincerely it's just my imagination drifting
Brush me off like the dirt on Jay-Z's shoulders
So I fall to the ground, collect myself
And get ready to take over your heart
Or at least your spare time
[Verse 2]
And I love the thought of being with you
Or maybe it's the thought of not being so alone
Hey, the second one's way sadder than the first one
But, I don't know
I love the thought of being with you
Maybe it's the thought of not being so alone
The second one's way sadder than the first one
But, I don't know
[Verse 3]
We should go and get a friggin' cup of coffee
And I'll act friendly
And I won't pull any stunts
But I'm a little stunt puller from birth
So I don't know what to tell you
If I try to confess my love for
Scones
I just wanna say somethin' real quick, please
Shh, listen
I love
These scones
Just the diversity of the selection they have here
The blueberry, the raspberry, strawberry, pumpkin
Even which is basically a friggin' squash
How they gonna make a scone out of a freaking squash?
Oh, wow, wow
That shit blows my mind
That's just Elon Musk just in his little lab, cookin' up, baby
But what were you talkin' about?
Oh, yeah, your boyfriend made you mad the other day?
What was he sayin'?
Oh, what do I think? Hmm
He was being mean at that part, point?
But I'm sure he's gonna turn around at some point
As well, and
[Verse 4]
I love the thought of being with you
Or maybe it's the thought of not being so alone
The second one's way sadder than the first one
But, I don't know
I love the thought of being with you
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Maybe it's the thought of not being so alone
Shit, I love being
I love being loved but don't like crying on the phone
[Verse 5]
Hi, what's up?
Yeah, what's goin' on?
Oh, yeah, she told me a lot about you
Yeah, uh-huh
It's so great you're doing all of those things
You should keep doing all of them I think
Oh, yeah, my name's Hobo Johnson
People like to say I'm a rapper, I'm actually not
I produced this myself
I'm hella fuckin' proud of it
But, yeah, she like
She's so nice, she was so nice
And cared about me, no one else did
Literally, I don't think I've ever felt love before that
She's a peach
Scone
She's a peach scone
Yes, and
[Verse 6]
I love the thought of being with her
I just really hope that she doesn't get hurt, ya know?
They say it takes two years to come back down to Earth
From that lovely place that you've been
I heard it's so nice
Good for you guys
I'm, I'm glad
(Being so alone)
And if you find someone who loves you for who you are
Keep lovin' 'em, man
'Cause that shit happens like once in a lifetime, ya know?
And who am I to get in the way of someone livin' their lifetime?
Ya know?
And I hope you're doing really well
I haven't talked to you in a while
But, uh, I found someone else who really loves me for who I am
But I don't call them enough
And that's why they moved away
I'm gonna call 'em right now
She wants me to call her
Okay, fine
