Fast Foodie - Fishboy

About a year ago now

I was flat and broke out

I couldn’t pay my loans down

I couldn’t pay the bank for my art degree

And like a starving artist

I started eating garbage

And I wrote about all the things I ate

And my reviews now

They hit a billion view counts

And on the nightly news hour

I was profiled for a feel-good piece

They called me «fast foodie»

They acted like they knew me

But they didn’t know the man I wanna be

Now I can live well

Bills paid

With the things that I make

What I make

Is not great

And it takes me all day

And on this afternoon

I eat a candy bar

I’m surrounded by

A museum of art

Everything preserved

To last a thousand years

Everything I write

Instantly disappears

It isn’t fair

So I push a statue

That smashes on the ground

I blame it on a kid, and I run

And I can live well

Bills paid

With the things that I make

What I make

Is not great

And it takes me all day

It takes me all day
