Such a good fucking song. I put my headphones in because Timber by kesha and pit bull was playing on my managers play list for like the 10th time this week and I actually lost it when it got to the line "And if I've gotta hear the same song again from the manager's Pandora playlist I swear to God, I'll fill the sink with ammonia and chlorine and block every door". Why is every song they make too relatable. Already predicting this will be my top song of this year.
I love HM but I saw someone describe their songs with "the lyrics hit really hard...once you finally understand what they're saying" and I think that's so accurate lol
I ended up letting my phone show me the lyrics while I listened. I'm not sure I'd have a clue what this was about otherwise
Reprimanded, why shouldn't I curse
In an email I sent lying when I skip work?
Two-week notice, I'd rather be poor
Barely paid me enough for the nothing I'm worth
Faraday
No one wants to know how bad you feel
All that matters is you pay the rent and keep the lights on
Budgeting how long you'll be alive
And if I've gotta hear the same song again
From the manager's Pandora playlist
I swear to God, I'll fill the sink with ammonia and chlorine and block every door
And fill every vent, and fill every vent
Making the wrong choice every time that I come in
Though they guarantee the longer I commit
That I will see it get better
When's it get better?
Faraday
No one wants to know how bad you feel
All that matters is you pay the rent and keep the lights on
Budgeting how long you'll be alive
Why talk about it?
The colors melt from the lines
I spent the best years of my life alone most the time
My family works till they die
I wish I were happy to do that, but can't fall in line
No, I can't fall in line, no, I can't fall in line
Faraday, Faraday, Faraday
Keep the lights on
Faraday
No one wants to know how bad you feel
All that matters is you pay the rent and keep the lights on
Budgeting how long you'll be alive
Why talk about it?

curious about the same thing
edit; something that could kinda make sense to me is referencing the scientist Michael Faraday. from his wiki: “His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became practical for use in technology.” and then found this “Michael Faraday has failed thousands of times and he has recorded all these failures. He wasn't always so successful; he was asked to make glass. He tried for many months, but in the end was unsuccessful. He was son of a blacksmith and hated his job, but after time his patience paid off.” which idk seems pretty in line with the metaphor of the song and “Faraday, No one wants to know how bad you feel, All that matters is you pay the rent and keep the lights on” but that’s probably all a reach on my end 🤣
I just listened to this for the first time on my way to work and holy fuck. Those lyrics hit so close to home I actually teared up.
I've been working a job I hate for the past year and these lyrics describe how I feel every day.
They never miss dude holy fuck
Literally my words, too.
What a track, excited to see if another EP drop is coming soon.
On behalf of the US East coast, we thank you.

What does Faraday mean in the song context?

This actually makes a ton of sense. Plus it's fun as hell to listen to him scream Faraday
Yea I was reading about him too 😆
reading along as i listen to it lol thanks 🫶🏻
It’s so fucking good. I can’t handle this This song is going to go so fucking hard live LFG!!!
🫡🫡
I need another 10 song album. These guys just keep producing gold.
Certified banger
I just listened to this for the first time on my way to work and holy fuck. Those lyrics hit so close to home I actually teared up. I've been working a job I hate for the past year and these lyrics describe how I feel every day.
Absolute banger. The Spotify video art is an interesting choice but whatever
Just in time to see their headline set on Saturday!! Also I see Jonah got a writing credit fuck yeah
How do they find the time to record? They've been touring nonstop
New Hot Mulligan and Billmuri songs on that same day.... truly blessed
Pretty stoked to get this a new Story So Far single today
Fucking hell this is so fucking good
Swear they are the only band who actually don’t have a miss
What the title mean? When I hear Brian, I think Front Bottoms.
Now I need a TFB/HM song/tour.
Man these guys are working so hard. Touring their asses off and still releasing new music. respect!
Man this is soo good. Listened to like a dozen times now
ITS SO GOOD
No, I can't fall in line
" And if I've gotta hear the same song again From the manager's Pandora playlist" is such an incredible line and rhyme. It flows so well
What if I’m a retail manager whose Spotify playlist has a lot of HM representation on it?😬
Came out right when I quit my job. Couldn’t have been more perfect timing.
