Lyrics[edit]

   [Verse 1]
   She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
   I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
   I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
   I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
   
   [Chorus]
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Your advice
   
   [Verse 2]
   Meat-eating orchids forgive no one just yet
   Cut myself on angel hair and baby's breath
   Broken hymen of your highness, I'm left black
   Throw down your umbilical noose so I can climb right back
   
   [Chorus]
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Your advice
   
   [Verse 1]
   She eyes me like a Pisces when I am weak
   I've been locked inside your heart-shaped box for weeks
   I've been drawn into your magnet tar pit trap
   I wish I could eat your cancer when you turn black
   
   [Chorus]
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Hey, wait, I got a new complaint
   Forever in debt to your priceless advice
   Your advice
   Your advice
   Your advice
