Barbara 2.0

Look at this stuff

God, it's depressing

You don't like this stuff? Barbara, this is our stuff

A shrine to the feelings we've been repressing

Well, then maybe we should go

Half-finished projects, meaningless objects

Plans I abandoned or quit

It's the stuff of our lives, and all of it's shit

What? Barbara!

Books on computers, a spin-your-own-yarn kit!

Okay, that wasn't as much fun as I thought it'd be

Home-brewed kombucha that tasted like armpit

We are not kombucha people, we did find that out

Take it and trash it, burn it or smash it

We have to adapt to survive

We can be fighters with fire inside us

We're more than detritus, we're finally alive!

The Barbara you married, she is dead and buried

Six feet below, oh

And now Barbara the doormat, she's coming back in a new format

Time to let go

Say hello to Barbara 2.0

I never even used this and then I felt bad that I never used it

Break it!

Huhhh, Barbara, you're right

I think I've been hiding

I was too! I don't even like pottery!

Stuck out of sight like my unused aluminum siding

We are not aluminum siding people!

Tragic and static, trapped in this attic

Now Adam is shedding his skin

No more excuses

We're no longer useless

We've got nothing to lose

We can finally begin!

The new Adam is wiser

The old one's fertilizer

Time to let go

Say hello!

I'm tired of doors to better or more

We could just walk, but we've done that before

What we cannot ignore is Lydia needs us

That must be the reason she sees us

Adam, I wanna stay

She needs people who won't run away

Friends who don't stop at problems or obstacles

Not a house but a home

Ready, set, let's go!

Time to let go, oh

'Cause the new upgraded Maitlands

Are charging out the gates and they're gonna unload

Say hello to Maitlands 2.0

Maitlands 2.0
