Living the Dream

Alarm goes off at 9 a.m.
I don't get up until 12
I get my daily doom scroll in
And I don't put on clean clothes
What time does Maccy's breakfast stop?
By now, I should probably know
I guess I'll just eat these expired Coco Pops
While I binge-watch self-help videos

Living the dream
Living the dream
I don't know what you mean
'Cause I'm living the dream

(And to summarise the true key to a happy life is quite simply)

Oh, no, my TV just turned off automatically
And my phone's run out of charge
Maybe I should see what the great outdoors has to offer me
But when I open the curtains, it's dark
(Oh shit, there's my flatmate, hello)

He lets himself in and I say to him
"Dude how was your day?"
He says, "Being a Junior Doctor
Is challenging sometimes
But also super rewarding
How was your day?"
"I've been busy"
"Doing what?"

Living the dream (oh, for fuck's sake, I shouldn't have asked)
Living the dream (what dream are you living?)
I don't know what you mean
'Cause I'm living the dream

Saxophone solo (where the fuck did she come from?)
(You know what)
(She's great, you're fine)
(I'm just going to the bed)

11:30 and I'm wide awake
Feeling pretty good 'cause I did one thing today
I sent an email to my landlord
Hip, hip, hooray
Telling them I couldn't pay

Because I
Because I
Because I'm

Living the dream
Living the dream
I don't know what you mean
'Cause I'm living the dream
(Everybody)

Living the dream
Living the dream
I don't know what you mean

Because I
Because I
Because I'm

Because I'm living the dream
Living the dream

Oh, eviction notice?
What the fuck?
