lyrics

My baby used to be a barista
Playin rock n roll and pullin shots
Hey baby wontcha make me a quad
Hey baby wontcha make it real hot

My baby’s a secret architect
Always building cathedrals in her mind
Maybe someday she’ll make em for real
But I guess right now just isn’t the time

Everybody’s lookin for somethin
In the space between their life and their dreams
Everybody’s lookin for the chance
To be a little more than they seem

Well now my baby’s a fish distributor
It’s the kind of job that just seems to fit her
My baby loves bein’ a fish distributor
I think for now she’s found a place where she belongs

Distributin fish is so easy
Leaves space to make a few more castles
Everybody loves fish and my baby loves fish
Now she’s got more spare time and a lot less hassle
Now I order my quad espresso
From somebody else at that same old space
But I remember my baby and her super-cool playlists
Nobody’s ever gonna take her place

But I know she’s found somethin better
She loves distributin; she sure loves fish
So whatever’s best for my baby
Whatever that is, that’s my only wish

Everybody’s lookin for somethin
In the space between their life and their dreams
Everybody’s lookin for the chance
To be a little more than they seem

Well now my baby she’s a fish distributor
And it’s the kind of job that just seems to fit her
My baby loves bein’ a fish distributor
I think for now she’s found a place where she belongs
