Rotten Milk
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Twenty five-year-old watching Looney Tunes
Waiting for a job as you play with your food
Wondering why your fridge is so full of filth
Cookies filled with bugs and cartons of rotten milk
Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what's going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what's going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don't you die on me?
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me
Mother's on a walker, still tucks you in
Working nine to five, your outline is a sin
You're crying for your bottle of Xanax and tequila
Finding girls on Craigslist like your excreta
Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what's going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
Stop whining, you're a grown man
Mother needs to let go of your hand
Have you heard what's going on outside?
Water guns aren't why people die
You say: Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don't you die on me?
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me
Rotten teeth, trick or treat
Mom, make me food to eat
Monsters in the closet
Showers from sink faucets
My girl's super sweet, seventeen
No, that ain't a crime to me
She makes me Hot Pockets while I play with rockets
Mama, mama, please help me
Still don't know how to brush my teeth
Finding love is hard, you see
So mother, don't you die on me?
Rotten milk tastes good to me
Don't know how to buy groceries
This is normal, can't you see?
But mama, you cannot leave me
