You got me a new house

So I'm baking you bread each Sunday

Growing basil out by the doorway

Being a good wife you can write books about

I'm finding my feet here

Got some inside shoes and some inside moves

I won't stay in the kitchen but, what a good kitchen

No I'm not wishing my days away

There's no ghosts in the wall

Or smoke in the hall

And I'm thinking this might be perfect

The neighbors are nice

And it's quiet at night

Maybe all of the shit was worth it

The days are still hot

And the work never stops

It's end-stage America you get or get got

But it's a little bit better

And a little bit better's alot

We got us a new couch

Shedding all of the dust that's held us

All the damage this city's dealt us

Being the good wives people write books about

I think we could stay here

Maybe four, five years 'til the air is clear

I'm not not pessimistic but who the hell isn't

Oh I'm still kicking my blues away

There's no ghosts in the wall

Or smoke in the hall

And I'm thinking this might be perfect

The neighbors are nice

And it's quiet at night

Maybe all of the shit was worth it

The days are still hot

And the work never stops

It's end-stage America you get or get got

But it's a little bit better

And a little bit better

A little it better's a lot

I think I'm still the same girl

Working back to myself at the end of the world

I think I'm still the same girl

But if I'm not, well I hope you still love her

I think I'm still the same girl

Working back to myself at the end of the world

I think I'm still the same girl

I think I'm still the same girl

I think I'm still the same girl

There's no ghosts in the wall

Or smoke in the hall

And I'm thinking this might be perfect

The neighbors are nice

And it's quiet at night

Maybe all of the shit was worth it

No ghosts in the wall

Or smoke in the hall

And I'm thinking this might be perfect

The neighbors are nice

And it's quiet at night

Maybe all of the shit was worth it

The days are still hot

And the work never stops

It's end stage America you get or get got

But it's a little bit better

It's little bit better

It's a little it better

And a little bit better's alot
