Better Snack

[Verse 1]
Well I stare at my phone till my eyes both ache
Scroll a thousand memes till the screen might break
Bought a yoga mat, but I just eat cake
Said I’d “hit the gym,” but I hit the brakes
I rewatch that show for the seventh time
Got a todo list, can’t read that line
I’m a walking ad for “I’ll be fine”
While my jeans scream out, “you’re lyin’”
[Chorus]
You only want salad when you’ve finished fries
Only count your steps once you’re out of time
Only drink water when the soda’s gone
Only miss the sun when the show’s still on
You only say “bed early” at half past two
Only plan your life in a bathroom queue
You only swear you’ll change when you’re moving slow
And you only let it go when it’s gone (oh no)
[Verse 2]
Set ten alarms, but I still run late
Blame “traffic” hard while I butter my toast plate
Told my boss I’m “on,” but I’m half-awake
Using yesterday’s coffee like a milkshake
Got a savings jar labeled “dreams and stuff”
But the corner shop snacks keep callin’ my bluff
Every “just one more” turns to “I’ve had enough”
But the chips keep sayin’, “what’s up?”
[Chorus]
You only want salad when you’ve finished fries
Only count your steps once you’re out of time
Only drink water when the soda’s gone
Only miss the sun when the show’s still on
You only say “bed early” at half past two
Only plan your life in a bathroom queue
You only swear you’ll change when you’re moving slow
And you only let it go when it’s gone
[Bridge]
I’ll start Monday (start Monday)
That’s what I said last year
My future self keeps sending
Passive-aggressive cheer
I raise my fork like a promise
Then dip it in melted cheese
Guess I’ll love myself tomorrow
Tonight I’ll get seconds, please (yeah)
[Chorus]
You only want salad when you’ve finished fries
Only count your steps once you’re out of time
Only drink water when the soda’s gone
Only miss the sun when the show’s still on
You only say “bed early” at half past two
Only plan your life in a bathroom queue
You only swear you’ll change when you’re moving slow
And you only let it go when it’s gone
(Just one more bite, then I’m done)

Upbeat acoustic comedy-pop, bright strummed guitars and playful hand percussion. Male vocals lean conversational in verses, then open into big, sing-along choruses with stacked harmonies and silly ad-libs. Light bass and shaker keep it bouncing; subtle whistle hook mirrors the chorus melody for instant earworm energy., comedy
