Lyrics I Think I Should Call My Mom - William Hinson

(Hey honey, it's mom
I just wanted to talk to you before you go on your trip tomorrow
I'm thinking about you and I'm excited for you
Wish we were going too, but I'm really really excited that you're getting this opportunity
If you get a minute, you can give me a call
I'm on my way home from choir practice right now
Love you baby, bye bye)

I'm thinking of a trip to somewhere upstate
Maybe find a farm for my charm
Then maybe it'll go away
How pretentious, how contrived
To think that everything will be alright
Another pint with my friends
It's only 4 AM

I think that I should call my mom
Maybe she can tell me where it all went wrong
Or maybe not
'Cause she's got a million other things
I think that I should journey off
And find a way to keep both of my shoulders on
Or maybe not
'Cause my head's already long gone
Maybe I should call my mom

I'm thinking of a trip somewhere next fall
I'll stumble through Bermuda or Chattanooga
And switch back onto Adderall
How ostentatious, how sublime
To convince yourself immune to auto-gaslights
But I still can't seem to see in the dark

I think that I should call my mom
Maybe she can tell me where it all went wrong
Or maybe not
'Cause she's got a million other things
I think that I should journey off
And find a way to keep both of my shoulders on
Or maybe not
'Cause my head's already long gone
And I think I left the oven on
I'll learn some jokes and then I'll tell 'em wrong
Maybe I should call my mom
