Fired My Man

Racing through just one of many lessons

But try as I might, I was not progressing

Oh, I couldn't keep up with what was right in front of me

And I couldn't stand up on the sidewalk in New York City, oh

All my house plans were barely hanging on

It was emergency, ask you, it's time I made it home

And the sun is still streamed into that beautiful apartment

But if wasn't there, then did it ever really happen?

How did I let this get so out of hand?

No plan for my fight and no place to live

How did I let this get so out of hand?

I turned in my key and I fired my man

I took a crosswalk picture of Hamilton in the sky

But somewhere deep down, I knew that something wasn't right

And if I had it stop dead at the flashy yellow light

Well, don't keep strict, baby, I nearly died

How did I let this get so out of hand?

No plan for my fight and no place to live

How did I let this get so out of hand?

I turned in my key and I fired my man

Fired my man

Fired my man

Fired my man
