She don't believe in diamonds
She told me its a scam cause there's a
salt mine in the Congo
that's saturating the market
So I got her a box of almonds from that
place on Easton Ave where they got
samples on a gold plate
think I ate too much I got some side eye
But these things take a long, long time
you find someone who counts that high
been keeping time on a microwave
the power went out it reset again
I hope someday you find what you've been
asking about since I was a kid
I won't end up like her parents did
with a big new house and nothing to fill it with
Been saving up
but with no real plans
gonna ride this out
in September again
Then we'll all get jobs
in the fields we chose
gonna ride this out
take the long way home
