Fancy Floors Lyrics by Candi Carpenter

When the Asteroid Comes

2021

Lemon pledge in a yellow can
Look at my dishwater hands
5 AM and already working hard
I used to think I was born to sing
Could've been the next big thing
Sellin' songs I wrote on my guitar

But I'm cleaning other people's houses
Gettin' seven bucks an hour
Too young to be so tired and so bored
Lord I've made some choices I can't polish or ignore
So I'm cleanin' other people's fancy floors

He said he had the power to make me
A big star and he called me baby
But that's not what he wanted in the end
I was dumb enough to fall in love
Didn't know on the very next bus
A brand new blue-eyed singer just rolled in

Now I'm cleaning other people's houses
Gettin' seven bucks an hour
Too young to be so tired and so bored
Lord I've made some choices I can't polish or ignore
So I'm cleanin' other people's fancy floors

Lemon pledge in a yellow can can't
Clean the dust off the dreams and plans
I've been brushing underneath the rug
The only way to right the wrongs
Is to write them in my songs
And finally forgive myself because

I've been cleaning other people's houses
Gettin' seven bucks an hour
Too young to be so tired and so bored
Lord I've made some choices I can't polish or ignore
But I'm done sweepin' other people's fancy floors

Time to go find my own fancy floors
I'm done sweepin' other people's fancy floors
