lyrics

CHORUS
Hanging out alone, typical Friday night
Lost my job ‘cause I started a breakdance fight
Feeling lost and confused, only myself to blame
But then a plant says, girl, your luck’s about to change

This tiny cactus with a pink thing on top
Is about to be murdered by the owner of the shop
So I throw down the only money I have left
And save this succulent from certain death

CHORUS
For the first time
I did something right
Figured out my life
‘Cause my plants are not dead!

VERSE
On a date tonight with a super sexy guy
Things are getting hot sparks flyin’ out of my eyes
Moving to my bed, that’s when I start to freak
The plants attracted ants and worms into the sheets

His eyes, turn from passion to revolt
He jumps out the window, landing flat on the road
In my despair, I look to the windowsill
And see all the plants, that I have not killed

BRIDGE
A man died
When he saw my dirty sheets
And my apartment
Is now a crime scene
But I want joy,
Even if it comes with ants!
Better believe it, buddy boy,
I’M BUYING MORE PLANTS!

CHORUS
For the first time
I did something right
Figured out my life
‘Cause my plants are not dead!

For the first time
I did something right
Figured out my life
‘Cause my plants are not dead!
