Eviction Notice

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Papers on my door Creased and stapled tight Three days to disappear From the place I kept alive The landlord won't look up Just a name on his list My plant by the window Still reaching through the mist [Pre-Chorus] I read it twice Then I laughed out loud You want my keys? Baby, look around I packed my pride In a grocery bag Now my heart beats fast But I won't fold that fast [Chorus] Eviction notice I see you now Eviction notice I'm not going down Eviction notice Take your shot I still got rhythm You still got nothin' [Verse 2] Stairwell smells like rain And old fried food The neighbor heard me sing Said, "Girl, I feel you too" Got a couch in the truck Got a dress that shines Got my mama's voice Rolling through my mind [Pre-Chorus] I read it twice Then I laughed out loud You want my keys? Baby, look around I packed my pride In a grocery bag Now my heart beats fast But I won't fold that fast [Chorus] Eviction notice I see you now Eviction notice I'm not going down Eviction notice Take your shot I still got rhythm You still got nothin' [Bridge] If the floor falls out I'll land on beat If the walls come down I'll still move my feet Name on the mailbox Gone by dawn But you can't evict What I built in a song [Chorus] Eviction notice I see you now Eviction notice I'm not going down Eviction notice Take your shot I still got rhythm You still got nothin'
