Lyrics
Verse 1
I, I wake up and get to work
I don't have time to make my bed
I can’t remember what you said
Text me so I don’t forget
I won’t circle to find a parking spot
I’d rather just pull into a lot
Who cares about the money spent
Living in the moment
Pre-Chorus
So if it’s not convenient
If it’s just gonna rain on my parade
If it adds more work to what I’ve made
Then I’d rather just eat all my meals on a paper plate
Chorus
Throw it away
Oh I never knew no I never knew why
I’ve always been so drawn to plastic
I’ve been so uncomfortable
Working with what’s in these cabinets
Oh I know I’ve got everything I need
But it’s easy to throw cares away
Oh I never knew no I never knew why
I’ve always preferred paper plates
Verse 2
You, you say I don’t care how you feel
I say your feelings are real
But I can’t, can’t find the space to squeeze them in
Too much in my head now
Pre-Chorus 2
So if its not relevant
If it’s just gonna get me to think too hard
If you’re trying to make me put down my guard
Then I’d rather just eat all alone on my paper plate
Vamp
Throw it away
I don’t have time to waste
Throw it away
Just living in the moment
I don’t have time to waste
Vamp 2
I avoid the grit of life
The responsibility and fight
And my garbage piles so high
I can’t hide from my feelings
Gotta learn to deal with the rainy days
If I don’t do the work I don’t paid
So I’m trying to handle my mind in a healthy way
Chorus 2
Throw it away
Oh I never knew no
I never knew why
I’ve always been so drawn to plastic
I’ve been so uncomfortable
Cleaning out what’s in these cabinets
Oh I know I’ve got everything I need
Life’s not disposable
I never knew no I never knew why
I’ve always preferred paper plates
