"Two Little Pigs" lyrics

"Two Little Pigs"
(feat. Matilda Sargren)

Babe, you're cute when you snore
I open voice memo and press record
You've curled up around me, wrapped round my body
Like a telephone cord

Hung over like two dead hogs
Stay in bed, I'll make smoothie shots
Ginger, lemon, turmeric detox
Pineapple and coconut
Pancakes with maple syrup on top

A straitjacket's hung on the door
A red beret is thrown on the floor
I think two strangers broke in the night before
To drink all our wine and left at dawn

I call you by the letter V
Which stands for the prettiest name known to me
I know you like I know every molecule
In my own body

But last night, we were strangers again
Last night was an experiment
It reminded me there's parallel dimensions
Where you're not somebody's girlfriend
And suddenly, I was in love again

And suddenly, everything is possible
Like on the day when we first met
But within everything that's possible
Is the possibility that something could change in the way you feel about me

You'll be away now for a few months
Your job is sending you 'cross the pond
I want you to say you wish I'd come along, but
When I bring up the conversation, you say

"Now you'll have time for other things
Than singing for handouts at other people's weddings"
The tone of your voice feels condescending
But you don't seem to be noticing
I ate the last pancakes, you wanted some too
You say
"Thanks pig, for only thinking 'bout you"
I pick up my phone and play you the sound clip
Of before when you snored

If I'm a pig, then you are one too
