Tupperware

(album: Make Peace With That - 2021)

Put your books down, let's go dance
Late Tuesday to a hot soul band
Drink beer till we can't stand
Then two slices and a cola can

We're different and that's okay
I stay up all night and I sleep all day
And you know what you wanna do
And you're working hard to see that through

I'd tease you about your Tupperware labels
And you'd bug me about leaving my stuff all over the table
I'd be at your place whenever I was able
I guess we just ran out of time
But I'll always remember the days when you were mine

Dressed up we're going out to eat
Fancy place on Stradbrook Street
Tiny plates, tiny food, there's a tiny chance
We'll get drunk and we'll have to cab back
You got school in the morning but that's okay
I'll wake up early and I'll drive you there at 8
And pick you up at 6pm
Take you home, we'll do it all again

I'd tease you about your Tupperware labels
And you'd bug me about leaving my stuff all over the table
I'd be at your place whenever I was able
I guess we just ran out of time
But I'll always remember the days when you were mine

In your tiny apartment the first place you lived on your own
For a year and a bit we made that house into a home

I'd tease you about your Tupperware labels
And you'd bug me about leaving my stuff all over the table
I'd be at your place whenever I was able
I guess we just ran out of time
But I'll always remember the days when you were mine
