lyrics

Moseying through the mall
Swinging by the perfume stall
Salesgirl she offers to give me a squirt
Smells like seaweed but it can’t hurt
“Molly,” I said, “Don’t think it’s the right fit
It’s not my favorite, but—hey, I like it.”

Pull up to the liquor store
Bud Light special: six for four
“Hey, do you wanna try some peach vodka?
We got some samples by the door.”
I admit I felt a little skeptical
Seemed a bit botantical, but hey, I like it.

You can’t knock it if you ain’t tried it
If you ain’t looking you’ll never find it
You’d better try it before you buy it
Hey, I like it

Over at the coffee shop
Trying to get a cup of joe
Dude in an apron, asks me a question
Something about “macchiato”
“Bryce,” I said, “I’ve never heard of it!”
So then I tried a sip
And hey, I liked it

[chorus]

Lattes, spa days, bouillabaise
You heard me right
Lamaze, toupees, Baked Lays?
That ain’t right
Pâtés, parfaits, latest craze
Whatever feels right
Soirées, corn maze, trip to Marseilles?
Hey, if the price is right

Sitting at the restaurant
Trying to get filet mignon
Bring me an entrée, looked like an ashtray
Don’t know what they were on
Now I know y’all might think it’s ridiculous
Guess I’m just adventurous
But hey, I liked it

[chorus]

Extremely hard to pick a favorite song, they're all so different but work together so well! Elle's gorgeous vocals and the inventive, varied instrumentals bring me back to listening to Elliott Smith on a Discman, for some reason. Maybe because the lyrics are full of heart and melancholy, but you just want to sing along. marmapuke
