poltergeist Lyrics by Meg Smith

The Gospel According to Meg Smith

2024

[Intro]
Oh, fucking hell

[Verse 1]
The people that I vote for just fucking lie
But they lied a bit better than the other guy
My college best friends don't talk anymore
My boyfriend says he loves me, how can I be sure?
Are my songs even good or no good at all?
The A&R said I was unoriginal
All my heroes got famous by seventeen
The girls with famous daddies have it so easy

[Chorus]
I'm jealous, resentful
I swear I'm past my prime
Try'na keep myself alive
I'm sеlfish, ungrateful
It turns my knuckles white
But I can't matеrialize
I'm a poltergeist

[Verse 2]
Going on Hinge dates in the apocalypse
I've got a cousin who thinks that I'm a Communist
It's all money, God, sex and politics
Singing my pop songs into the abyss
Holding on to things everyone else forgot
'Til he takes my shirt off in the parking lot

[Chorus]
I'm jealous, resentful
I swear I'm past my prime
Try'na keep myself alive
I'm selfish, ungrateful
It turns my knuckles white
But I can't materialize
I'm a poltergeist

[Post-Chorus]
I'm a poltergeist
I'm a poltergeist
I'm a poltergeist

[Chorus]
I'm jealous, resentful
I swear I'm past my prime
Try'na keep myself alive
I'm selfish, ungrateful
It turns my knuckles white
But I can't materialize
I'm a poltergeist
