Emily, Emily
I'm on my way (ah)
What's up now? Not again
Really? Calling, calling, calling
What up? Why you always gotta do this?
Don't dig up dead birds, Emily
Don't hit the dog's claw
Don't muck my damn paws now, Emily
We used to like you before (before)
'Cause we could have some fun right, didn't we?
Sharp, lifting our crown
But now you steal my shit all the time
Why do you have to steal my shit all the time?
Emily will, Emilydon't
Emily do, whatever she wants
Emily will, Emily don't
Emily do, whatever she wants
Why are you always on that hammer all the time, Emily? (yeah)
That old china got you good now, huh, Emily? (Emily, yeah)
She said: Your daddy knows my daddy
In the local swimming pool
And yeah, we stole two-hundred dollars
And spent it all on laser doom
She said: Your daddy knows my daddy
Yes, your daddy knows my dad
She said: Your daddy knows my daddy (my daddy knows your dad)
The daddies we never had (yeah, yeah)
Just stop doing what you're doing Emily
And everything before, yup
Whatever happens, we are still family
Just not kicking it right, nah
Yeah, 'cause Emily will (yeah), Emily don't (uh-huh)
Emily do, whatever she wants
Emily will (yeah), Emily don't (uh-huh)
Emily do, whatever, she wants
And she will not repent this (no, no, no, no)
But we still stay connected
Because your daddy knows my daddy
And my daddy knows your dad
Daddy knows my daddy
Yes, your daddy knows my dad
She said: Your daddy knows my daddy (my daddy knows your dad)
The daddies we never had (yeah, right)
I think your daddy actually owe me some money (ah, no)
Or actually my dad, he owes my dad some money
Hey daddy, you got some money for an ice cream?
(We want ice cream!)
'Cause we need ice cream
This Emily, yeah, is my new friend (my daddy knows your dad), yeah, your dad
Yeah, yeah, her dad, knows you
Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly (my daddy know your dad), he owes you money, yeah, that's, that's right
Can we please go to like a festival or something?
Do something fun?
Uh, you know, I heard
Alright, fuck it
(Did you record that?)
