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 a 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 knocked 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
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 settle 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 Sky Mall and counterfeit checks
Oh I was tired of drifting
You saved my life, now we're making a living and
Maybe I wanna give you everything
I know now that taking is giving
Know now that taking is giving oh
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
And I know I'm someone's nightmare
And I'm sure you're someone's dream
But as the cops and the stretchers pull up to the scene
I wake from the sleep
And realize it's me
Me
And I beg you
To stay
You gotta chase after me
(Dumpster fire)
They're gonna take me away
(Dumpster fire)
I wanna go back to sleep
(Dumpster fire)
I beg you to stay
(Dumpster fire)
Gotta chase after me
I wanna go back to sleep
Gotta chase after me
Young desire
Dumpster fire
