Self Care by Penelope Scott is all about mocking self care tutorials.. It appears in one of her most recent albums, Hazards (As of the time I am editing this, 22/11/2021).
[Verse 1]
Top ten ways to smear honey on your face
Cut your nails, do your makeup, and wake up late
Fill a bottle up with water and a soggy piece of fruit
Fill a workbook up with things that you can do
[Pre-Chorus]
When you're stressed, when things are just a mess
When you're feeling kinda anxious or, like, maybe depressed
I mean, maybe if you tried more, maybe if you tried
Maybe if you took more vitamins, you would learn to live a fuckin' life
[Chorus]
I'm not like that, I'm not coming back
I don't want it like that, not like that
I'm not like that, it won't be okay
I don't want it like that, not that way
[Verse 2]
Do drugs, have sex, tell your deepest darkest secrets to your friends
Post cringe, buy guns, are you done yet?
Fuck, not enough, cry a river, smash a cup
But it's never ever gonna be enough
For the people in the back row, but you still choose to listen
Knowing damn well it's really not their decision
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe if you try more, then you would deserve it
Maybe if you fixed the whole world by yourself, then you'd earn it!
[Chorus]
I'm not like that, I'm not coming back
I don't want it like that, not like that
I'm not like that, it won't be okay
I don't want it like that, not that way
