lyrics

Why do they call it executive if I don’t live on the top floor?
Why do they call it executive if it doesn’t pay cash?
Why do they call it executive if I haven’t showered in days?
Why would they call it executive if I never make rent?

Dysfunction for you, dysfunctional
Keep talking, yeah keep talking.
Dysfunction for you, dysfunctional.
Writing cheques that my ass can’t cash.

Why do they call it executive if I haven’t got a clock.
There’s no calendar on my wall.
I don’t have meetings every day.
I’ve got nothing going on.

Here for it he's not here for it.
I don’t even think I know where I am.
Go for it, there's no good moment.
I don’t even think I know my name.
Now you’re trying to get into me.
But you’re stuck in 2015.
Yeah, you say you’ll be good for the scene.
Drunk talk is cheap, get up and show me.

Dysfunctional you, dysfunctional me.
Keep talking, yeah keep talking.
Dysfunctional you, dysfunctional me
Writing cheques that my ass can’t cash.

I tried not to let you down, but I’ve failed.

Guess I’ll admit it, I'll never be what you wanted
Cadillac dreams smelling like nicotine
Shaking my head 'cause I'm searching for anything
Tear out my throat 'cause I’m choking on everything.
