"Graceland Too" lyrics
"Graceland Too"
No longer a danger to herself or others
She made up her mind and laced up her shoes
Yelled down the hall but nobody answered
So she walked outside without an excuse
She could do anything she wants to
She could do whatever she wants to do
She could go home, but she's not going to
So she picks a direction, it's ninety in Memphis
Turns up the music so thoughts don't intrude
Predictably winds up thinking of Elvis
And wonders if he believed songs could come true
I'm asking for it if they do
Doesn't know what she wants
Or what she's gonna do
A rebel without a clue
So we spent what was left of our serotonin
To chew on our cheeks and stare at the moon
Said she knows she'll live through it to get to this moment
Ate a sleeve of saltines on my floor and I knew that
I would do anything you want me to
I would do anything for you
I would do anything
I would do anything
Whatever you want me to do, I will do
Whatever she wants
Whatever she wants
Whatever she wants (Whatever you want)
Whatever she wants (Whatever you want)
I would do anything (Whatever you want)
I would do anything (Whatever you want)
Whatever she wants (Whatever you want)
Whatever she wants (Whatever you want)

Phoebe Bridgers told Apple Music about "Punisher", "I started writing it about an MDMA trip. […] You can't control people, but it's tempting to want to help when someone's going through something, and I think it was just like a meditation almost on that — a reflection of trying to be there for people."
Boygenius lent the vocals for this song. Phoebe Bridgers explained to Stereogum,
"I was in Nashville writing it and listening to the recording, and Julien lives there. It felt right. There is something kind of magical about us coming together. I had gone on a trip just to visit, and then was writing that song, and then I came home and I was finishing the album and I was like, 'Hey, do you guys wanna sing on this song? I finished it, do you want to sing on it remotely?' And then I was like, 'Well, I can just buy a fucking ticket to Nashville.'"
