Broken Combo at the Midnight Shift

[Verse 1] Paper hat Crooked smile “Welcome in ” teeth like tile Neon ketchup on the tile floor Grease ghosts crowding at the door Order screen stuck on repeat “Number nine Number nine Number nine Please” Pickles crying in the jar Something laughing in the salad bar [Chorus] I’m cracking at the counter “Have a nice day” as I fall through the screen My mask on the menu Smiling while I tear at the seams “Can I take your order?” Voices in the fryer chant my name Combo deal possession Buy one soul Get one insane (oh) [Verse 2] Manager’s face starts to smear Eyes like coupons Torn at the edges Drive-thru window won’t stay shut Hands reach in All tangled in cables Mop water thick as ink Mouth in the mop bucket asking me to drink Birthday crown made of receipts Wrapping round my wrists Won’t let me leave [Chorus] I’m cracking at the counter “Have a nice day” as I fall through the screen My mask on the menu Smiling while I tear at the seams “Can I take your order?” Voices in the fryer chant my name Combo deal possession Buy one soul Get one insane (yeah) [Bridge] Clock says midnight Every minute Every blink The same old digit Headset hissing “Let me in” I say “Welcome ” with a crooked grin Name tag burning through my chest Uniform stitching eats my breath I hear a giggle in the grease “Gangle Gangle Time to feast” (hey) [Chorus] I’m cracking at the counter “Have a nice day” as I fall through the screen My mask on the menu Smiling while I tear at the seams “Can I take your order?” Voices in the fryer chant my name “Welcome to forever” Clocked in Locked in I stay deranged
