lyrics

Ripping up shirts to make some makeshift muzzles,
digging through boxes for impossible puzzles,
there's only so many dishes you can cook with beans.

Maybe we can try to plant a garden,
with stolen shrubs from the local park and then
we can root for the ones we want to grow.

Let's build a blanket fort and hold out,
we've got enough supplies to see it through,
with flashlights and 50 cent novels
the world burns but baby, I've got you.

Baby I've got you

Hey look outside, we finally have nice weather
I'm not sure if that makes things better
at least now maybe we can get some vitamin D.

And how's your script about the apocalypse coming?
Maybe it'll get picked up when things get going,
We'll make some money and we'll head to the Isle of man.

Until then, let's build a blanket fort and hold out,
we've got enough supplies to see it through,
with flashlights and 50 cent novels
the world burns but baby, I've got you.

Baby I've got you
