lyrics

I said, "darling we should go outside, you've been so blue for days."

She said, "Mars has entered its third house, and the moon's in retrograde, and I think it might be wise to leave our bodies in this space.
Moreover I have a migraine and undergrads to grade."

I said, "Okay."

Cause you gotta watch everything you say
when you have a wife with an MFA
When the stars align with an arbitrary sign every other day
It can be so sweet when celestial bodies meet and lead the way
and the poetry she reads to me is okay
for an MFA

I said, "baby we should settle down and get ourselves a place."
She said her witchy vibes will soon transform this old liminal space.
She has a theory about energies and how they get displaced.
Then we did some kind of ritual that left ashes on my face.

and I said, "That's great."

Cause you gotta watch everything you say
when you have a wife with an MFA
When the stars align with an arbitrary sign every other day
It can be so sweet when celestial bodies meet and lead the way
and the poetry she reads to me is okay

Cause you gotta watch everything you say
when you have a wife with an MFA
When the stars align with an arbitrary sign every other day
It can be so sweet when celestial bodies meet and lead the way
and the poetry she reads to me is okay
for an MFA
