One Week
(Chorus 1)
It's been 10 years since I liked this song
How do I still know the words after so long?
Three months since I heard it last
Crazy how you remember bullshit from the past
Two weeks since you hummed the tune
Got stuck in my head after you left the bedroom
Yesterday it just dawned on me
That this song will be with me for all eternity

(Verse 1)
Hey, I used to think this was smart
It could be called art
But it's nonsense without a doubt
I fill my head with what's said
Although I'd read a book instead
There's no more spacе because thesе lyrics pushed it all out
Not like I'd want to catalogue this
But never dismiss
The draw of catchy, corny pop tunes
I wish I could evict this
But like I'm ticklish
It's part of me, nothing I can do
Can I kick it quick? The trick is sick I like to think a link in sync
I mumble through it 'cause the words are secondary
Gotta phrase it right, 'cause then it's tight. It's got that flow like reggaeton
But there it goes, the quick part really doesn't carry
I really feel as if I have a mental implant
Trying hard to forget it but I just can't
It's the catchy crap that kicks around in my head
Prolly remember this song till I drop dead
In '98 this reached Number One on TV
Couldn't happen in this economy
(Chorus 2)
It's been 10 years since I liked this song
No, it was six or seven. Really, that long?
Three months since I heard it last
Haunting me like the ghost of shitmas past
It's been two weeks since you hummed the tune
I should have taped your mouth, not a moment too soon
Yesterday it was shown to me
How hopeless resisting this song was gonna be

(Instrumental break)

(Verse 2)
I got to thinking, I think it's tricky
To find the right balance for a song that's sticky
Have a bunch of lyrics with a beat then
Even in French, you'll round it out with a strong end
With simile structure that is perfect
You know it's worth it
To spend some time on your word choice
Even though this song has neither
I'm a believer
In the strength of a smooth voice
Gonna start this part, it's smart again
Gonna do it till we both pretend
That what I'm singing has meaning and some depth
Gonna make some room for me to croon 'cause this sick tune ends rather soon
And you gotta have some time to catch your breath
Maybe I'm bitter that I didn't think of this first
A catchy chorus with a rapid-fire word verse
It's not uncommon for a man to feel a little pissed
When a big band has a hit with gibberish
I guess it's better that I didn't come up with this
I wouldn't want to do that to the world
(Chorus 3)
It's been 10 years since you heard this song
Tapped on your dashboard and tried to sing along
Three months since you heard it last
Saying, "Oh, what was that song that had that part super fast?"
Two weeks since I came to see
The only way out of this musical insanity
Yesterday, suicide
But it will still be two weeks till this song leaves my mind

(Outro)
But it will still be two weeks till this song leaves my mind
But it will still be two weeks till this song leaves my mind
Even that weird Canadian soccer line
