Lyrics

Buy to return

Engaging in purchasing items with the intention to return them later

Buy to return

Reiteration of the idea of buying things only to return them afterward

Every week

Regularly, on a weekly basis

It gives you something to do

Shopping provides an activity or task

Something to prove

It gives a sense of validation or justification for oneself

No one knows where you are, when you drive

Being elusive or lost during drives, metaphorically or physically

Strapped in

Securely fastened into a situation


Staring at a red light

Intensely focused on a red traffic light, possibly symbolic of a pause or hesitation

Don't you know what's next to buy next week?

Pressure to continuously plan purchases for the future


Line after line, never needed reasons

Continuously following a pattern without needing justification

Line after line, any time of day

No restrictions on the time to engage in this pattern

Next is your turn

Now it's your turn to participate in this behavior

No need for policy signs

No necessity for external rules or regulations

You got them all memorized, you say

Confidently knowledgeable about these patterns or behaviors

Hi Ruth, you have to help me

An appeal for assistance to Ruth without wanting to be recognized

You never saw me here

Avoiding being noticed or identified in a particular situation

Is it ever happening to you, when you're

Inquiring about experiencing similar situations


Staring at a red light

Repetition of intense focus on a red traffic light, possibly indicating a feeling of being stuck or in a cycle

Don't you know what's next to buy next week?

Continued pressure or uncertainty regarding future purchases


What is all this white sugar

Questioning the significance of a substance like white sugar

Torture in the whites of your eyes

Pain or discomfort reflected in the eyes due to certain choices or actions

Something to quit, or to take up

Contemplation about stopping or starting something

To change, or just leave behind

Considering a change or leaving something behind


Staring at a red light

Repeated intense focus on a red traffic light, possibly indicating a feeling of being stuck or in a cycle

Staring at a red light

Repetition of being stuck or uncertain about future purchases

Don't you know what's next to buy next?

A rhetorical question emphasizing the ongoing uncertainty about future purchases


One last time

Final instance of performing an action and feeling uncomfortable or unsatisfied

Nothing fits right

A sense of discomfort or dissatisfaction with fitting in or conforming

Dead on line

Metaphorical expression indicating feeling disconnected or not aligned with expectations or standards

Ruth I need a change, need another size

An appeal to Ruth for assistance or change in a situation, possibly referencing a need for something different or better fitting
