lyrics

Verse 1:
Anxiety from A to B
Brings life in need for pills to sleep
As we proceed in watching him angrily chase them down
With bourbon and ginger ale
Honesty is policy
For Mrs. mediocrity
As we can see she’s having a hard time containing herself
She bites her lip and gives it hell

Chorus:
None seem too keen on what’s to come
The devils in the details
And that’s exactly where they’re meant to be
Misery needs and never wants
So don’t forget to exhale
Cuz she needs them to keep her company
Ohhhohhhhh

Verse 2:
Society has her believe
She’s bound to be on silver screens
And we concede she’s not hard to look at but even still
She doesn’t learn or listen well
If modesty had learned to breathe
They’d be the boys with perfect teeth
And we believe they’re bounded by contract to meet his will
But who we gonna tell

Chorus:
None seem too keen on what’s to come
The devils in the details
And that’s exactly where they’re meant to be
Misery needs and never wants
So don’t forget to exhale
Cuz she needs them to keep her company
Ohhhohhhhh


Chorus:
None seem too keen on what’s to come
The devils in the details
And that’s exactly where they’re meant to be
Misery needs and never wants
So don’t forget to exhale
Cuz she needs them to keep her company
Ohhhohhhhh
