Paycheck Lyrics by Max Bennett Kelly
Spent all my patience on a paycheck
Filling my tank up ‘fore my day shift
Small conversations and I hate it
She said “please don’t forget me when you’re famous”
So what am I waiting for?
Darling, what’s the point
Of filling empty gin and tonics for these wealthy alcoholics?
Can’t do it anymore
I gotta make it out of dodge before my lease is up
So baby keep me up
‘Cause soon I’ll be out of here
And I wish you could come
But I’ll have way too many roommates and no room inside my suitcase
Thought I should make that clear before we fall in love
Please don’t wait, ‘cause I
Spent all my patience on a paycheck
Filling my tank up for my day shift
Small conversations and I hate it
She said “please don’t forget me when you’re famous”
Spent all my patience on a paycheck
Filling my tank up ‘fore my day shift
I know I’ll miss you and I hate it
Hey shit, at least I got to see you naked
So what am I waiting for?
Darling, what’s the point
Of moving to Los Angeles and eating vegan sandwiches
I can’t afford?
So if I come back to Seattle can I say I’m yours?
Like before
I spend my whole paycheck
Filling my tank up ‘fore my day shift
Long conversation and I hate it
She said “please don’t forget me when you’re famous”
Spent all my patience on a paycheck
Filling my tank up ‘fore my day shift
I know I’ll miss you and I hate it
She said “please don’t forget me when you’re famous”
Famous
