Seven Dollars

lyrics

Once again
I must mention that this wasn't the plan,
Understand,
I'm just a girl with too much time on her hands
Dive right in
To the ocean of relentless demands
I can sleep when I'm dead

Tell me something's gonna change soon
How many other things are going to break?
I didn't mean to make you more concerned
I just don't know how much more I can take

Take a little bit of your down time,
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get
What the world keeps promising me
If I work just a little bit harder
Little bit longer
Little bit less sleep
Little bit less to eat
Don't you feel blessed to be
Working with a big celebrity like them?

All the while they keep asking

Do you really need any down time?
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get
What the world keeps promising me
If I work just a little bit harder
Little bit longer
Little bit less sleep
Little bit less to eat
Don't you feel blessed to be
Working with a big celebrity like them, huh?

Innovating on multi-ended candles to burn
Do whatever it takes to finish working and earn
One more coin to pay back the debt that working accrued
See what's left here for food (Oh! Seven dollars! 🙃)

Tell me something's gonna change soon
How many other things are going to break?
I didn't mean to make you more concerned
I just don't know how much more I can take

Take a little bit of your down time,
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get
What the world keeps promising me
If I work just a little bit harder
Little bit longer
Little bit less sleep
Little bit less to eat
Don't you feel blessed to be
Working with a big celebrity like them?

All the while they keep asking

Do you really need any down time?
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get
What the world keeps promising me
If I work just a little bit harder
Little bit longer
Little bit less sleep
Little bit less to eat
Don't you feel blessed to be
Working with a big celebrity like them, huh?

It's like climbing the stairs in a collapsing building
If I make it there, it's still gonna kill me
And no matter how far I get
I can't outpace the falling bricks

Just put up a sign saying this is where she
Put up a fight just to end up buried
Cause no matter how far I get
I can't outpace the falling bricks

Do you really need any down time?
Wonder if I'm ever gonna get
What the world keeps promising me
If I work just a little bit harder
Little bit longer
Little bit less sleep
