Dumpster Fire

I was an ambulance chaser

Drunk driving with the better angels of my nature

Stealing Cuervo from strangers

After showing up uninvited

Now my back's on the asphalt

My Ford is totaled like a turtle in the crosswalk

I lie there laughing my ass off

It’s the second fiesta I've crashed tonight

You showed up hot off a shoplifting spree

You’re rocking bobby socks, a crop top, and knock-off sneaks

Sarah McLachlan was singing to me

“In the arms of the angels”

You were not a paramedic

But you were blessed with a morbid aesthetic

You pulled me free from the wreckage

You kissed me and told me I looked so poetic

Love at first sight never felt so pathetic

Dumpster fire

You're so taken with me

Dumpster fire

I’m so taken with you

Match made in heaven or hell or wherever

The shell of oblivion,

Living on a wire

Young desire

Dumpster fire

We moved from Tampa to Dallas

I’m making money forging absentee ballots

We settled down in a palace

Your ex-boyfriend’s late uncle’s holiday home

We drive around in a Corvette

You're stealing packages from old people's doorsteps

Treasure we add to the vortex

Of shit off of SkyMall and counterfeit checks

I was tired of drifting

You saved my life, now we’re making a living

And Baby, I wanna give you everything

I know now that taking is giving

I KNOW NOW THAT TAKING IS GIVING

Dumpster fire

You're so taken with me

Dumpster fire

I’m so taken with you

Match made in heaven or hell or wherever

The shell of oblivion,

Living on a wire

Young desire

Dumpster fire

Dumpster fire

I know I’m someone's nightmare

I’m sure you're someone's dream

But as the cops and the stretchers pull up to the scene

I wake from a sleep

I realize it’s me

And I beg you to stay

Dumpster fire

You gotta chase after me.

Dumpster fire

They're gonna take me away

Dumpster fire

I wanna go back to sleep

And I beg you to stay

Dumpster fire

You gotta chase after me.

Dumpster fire

I wanna go back to sleep

Young desire

Dumpster fire
