Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Momentary Bliss
[Verse 2]
We could do so much better than this
Mausoleum faces and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
[Verse 3]
Your potential, you lack credentials
And you were special, so fucking special (Rita)
Oh, how you need it, oh, how you're needing
And you keep squeezing the tube from the middle (Ay, ay, ay, ay)
You part the seas, but your arches, they ain't golden (Ah)
And you was gagging for some gags so now you're rolling (Woo)
Best you shut your trap and keep it hush (Hush)
On another note, compliments make me blush
There's a hole in your pocket, so you cannot find the change
Cavern of your mind, you say you're patterned
You pull your strings and you jump, hold your mouth and you say
What was scripted, the day before it happened?
We all give applause when people open doors
But on the way out it did your back in
See, everything in life ain't silver and gold
But mining for metal gave you platinum
[Verse 4]
It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin to think light bulb don't blink
Just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick
[Verse 5]
Posta boy
Posta girl
In truth the bills (The bills)
They must be paid (Yeah, yeah, alright)
Posta boy (Yeah, alright)
Posta girl
[Verse 6]
In truth, the bills, they must be paid (Uh-huh)
And what is left is sodden cake typical
Oh, you need to change your face
You're gettin' sold, it's such a waste
[Verse 7]
Oh, you know we can do so much better than this
Swimming in pools of momentary bliss
Where you got to bite the bounty 'cause everybody taking it
Meanwhile you keep on adding
How big you gonna grow
[Verse 8]
It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin, to think light bulb don't blink
It just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick to think you ain't happy in your skin
It's wearing thin to think light bulb don't blink
It just flickers so dim, then it pops and withers
You're a turkey twizzler, you deserve school dinners
It makes me sick
[Verse 9]
We could do so much better than this
Mausoleum faces and momentary bliss
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
We could do so much better than this
Perfect little pictures of moments that we missed
We could do so much better than this
Oh, Rita, oh, Rita
