Small Plates Lyrics by Petey

Other Stuff

2019

[Verse 1]
So what's the matter with me?
See I'm not the man that I thought I would be
I'm still crashing on couches and drinking for free
I just wanna play drums on live TV
Yeah, that's the matter with me?
Say what's the matter with you?
You party 'til 5, your sleeping in 'til 2
I think she grew up with money, had a house with a view
I bet you think it's kind of funny, all the weird, dark stuff, that goes on in Malibu

[Verse 2]
Say what's the matter with us?
28 years old, hangover hits like a bus
Yeah, we learned how to love
We never learned how to trust
Yeah, life keeps moving on but we don't ever adjust
Yeah, that's the matter with us
You didn't trust yourself
Taking advice from any one with a yell
Taking advice from people living in hell
Think your making the right choice, following people who don't seem to treat themselves too well

[Chorus]
Yeah, we were sitting down on our first date
Drinking water-wine shout it's a small plate
Think it's kind of dumb, see this burn
Did you inherit from your parents all the silly things you need about you?

[Verse 3]
Better break this [?] nuts
A trillion bugs got our decisions at once
You know, I think we're determined and it eases my gut
But I don't mean to be a burden with all this, all this philosophy junk
Man, shut the fuck up
Oh hell, I must disagree
Tell me what is the point if we ain't walking 'round free
Did the bugs in your voice box make you patronize me?
So you can act like a moron and I'll take responsibility

[Bridge]
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la

[Chorus]
Yeah, we were sitting down on our first date
Drinking water-wine shout it's a small plate
Think it's kind of dumb, see this burn
Did you inherit from your parents all the silly things you hate about you?
