Two Week Notice

I think that being in love with me felt like a job to you
Not something you really wanted, just something you had to do
So you complete your tasks, you do your chores
Take out the trash and sweep the floors
And a job well done is kind of fulfilling
But nothing feels as good as going home

And you gave me a two week notice
Even if you didn't say it explicitly
You gave me a two week warning
You didn't have to tell me, I knew that you would leave
For better hours or better pay
Better management at a better place
And if retail has taught me anything
If people want to go, you should let them go

Nobody can replace you but I'm gonna try to
A silent resignation, God, that's just like you
You're a no call, no show kind of guy
Doing just what you gotta do to get by
And if you wanted to freelance
I don't know why you ever applied to a 9-5

And so I took bereavement when your love for me died
I was never any good at loss prevention, I couldn't keep you if I tried
I'm overworked and underpaid, and you used me to boost your resume
So it's probably for the better if I lock up alone

And you gave me a two week notice
Even if you didn't say it explicitly
You gave me a two week warning
You didn't have to tell me, I knew that you would leave
For better hours or better pay
Better management at a better place
And if retail has taught me anything
If people want to go, you should let them go

Nobody can replace you, but I'm gonna try to
A silent resignation, God, that's just like you
You're a no call, no show kind of guy
Doing just what you gotta do to get by
And if you wanted to freelance
I don't know why you ever applied to a 9-5
To a 9-5

I don't need to know why you wanted to go, just that you don't want to stay
But it's okay because you gave me a two week notice
You gave me a two week notice
You gave me a two week notice
You gave me, you gave me, you gave me

Nobody can replace you, but I'm gonna try to
A silent resignation, God, that's just like you
You're a no call, no show kind of guy
Doing just what you gotta do to get by
And if you wanted to freelance
I don't know why you ever applied to a 9-5
To a 9-5
To a 9-5
(I'm gonna cry)
