I paid the rent! :)

# I PAID THE RENT [VERSE 1] You say I’m living in your head Well, check your records twice I paid the rent on Tuesday And frankly, it wasn’t cheap I bought some curtains for the place The lighting was a crime And if I’m staying in your thoughts I might as well make them mine [PRE-CHORUS] You sent an eviction notice I sent it straight back Marked “payment received” With a coffee stain attached [CHORUS] I paid the rent I paid it on time So stop complaining That I’m living in your mind I paid the rent The contract’s very clear Thirty days’ notice, darling You can’t just throw me out of here [VERSE 2] You went to see your mate called Dave I heard about the beer Apparently you mentioned me So technically, I was there You tried the gym, you tried to sleep You tried counting sheep But every time you thought of me That’s another week I’ve got a sofa by the memories A kettle by regret And that embarrassing little corner You haven’t dealt with yet [CHORUS] I paid the rent I paid it on time So stop complaining That I’m living in your mind I paid the rent And since you let me stay I’ve changed the locks, bought houseplants And redirected all my mail [BRIDGE] “Rent free?” Excuse me? I have receipts. Deposit. First month. Last month. And somebody owes me for the curtains. Also... The heating is terrible. [BEAT DROPS] [FINAL CHORUS] I paid the rent So kindly calm yourself You gave me all that headspace I just put up a shelf I paid the rent And now I rather like it here So if you want me gone, my darling— Stop renewing the lease every year [OUTRO] Rent free? Absolutely not. Paid in full. Receipt’s in the kitchen. Tell Dave I said hi.
