Get in Trouble

A little white house on a cobbled drive Got a snow mowin', lawn blowin' man by her side A picket fence wasn't never quite her vibe She sees it every morning A PTA with the best damn bakes Never late to a meeting, never late to a game And her dad in law says she's got the prettiest face She sees it every morning She buys all the groceries, she makes all the food And her friends say she's always in a real good mood But she never says words she's been told are too rude Every single morning She fights the urge to put a drop of poison in her husband's drink Declare herself hysterical just to see a shrink To change her name, her hair, her clothes Throw her ID down the sink Those are just normal morning thoughts She thinks Get in trouble Drag race your soul down the street Go fucking feral Let that fire burn free And don't you let them pull you down, no Don't you let them run you out, no Steal their shit and blow this town She goes to book club on Friday She drinks a lot of wine And she tries not to think about The life she said was fine See it is, it is, she swears to God it is Hard to get up in the morning So she washes it down and she powers through She tries not to think about the Girl she once knew She can still sometimes see her In the mirror looking through Getting dimmer every morning So she fights the want to drive her SUV into the lake Or to get into an argument Just so she can punch somebody's face Lose a few teeth and bleed Just so she can taste Get in trouble Drag race your soul down the street Go fucking feral Let that fire burn free And don't you let them pull you down, no Don't you let them run you out, no Steal their shit and blow this town And some nights she says she's gonna take a long walk And she goes sees the cashier at the store down the block See, her name is Rita, she thinks she's hot She wants to see her in the morning And Rita says girl you gotta get out of your head No one's gonna show you how to break your own bread And if Jesus were here he'd say We end up dead Don't give them all your mornings Get in trouble
