Today

I am a Disney usher
I'm barely scraping by
My discontentment comes in many shapes and sizes
When I wake up each morning, I tell myself to try
I tell myself that I will make no compromises
Today

A meeting with my landlord
Who makes me miss my train
And I smell awful 'cause there is no time to shower
I plaster on a smile, pretend I have no brain
Make nice with asshole tourists hour after hour

Today
Today, I plan to change my whole life forever
Usher, surprise! How you doin'?
It's your daily self-loathing!
I had some time to kill
That's why I thought I'd to stop by to remind you
Just how truly worthless you are!

Hey Usher, how you doin'?
It's your financial faggotry and ooh, child!
Do you have a second to discuss this situation
With shitty bank student loans?

Rewrite that shitty lyric
To make the ending land
Condense the repetition to its most essential
Define a formal structure so people understand
Pull out the stops to show the story's full potential

Today
Today, I plan to change this show for the better
Usher? Hi, babe, I'm with corporate niggatry
Just checking in to see if you were ready to invest in Cookie
Lucious, the Beyhive, the Stellar Awards
Or Wakanda Forever so we can finally
Get you into something unapologetically black

Usher, as supervisor of your sexual ambivalence
You can rest assured that I've sealed the gates of your body
And mind so that nothing can get inside
Your shitty butthole until you give the word

I want to break the cycle
That's so ingrained in me
But change comes way too slow and I am in a hurry
There's all of this rejection which brings such misery
But with my white girl music, I drown out the flurry of
Today

I am a Disney usher
I'm barely scraping by
My discontentment comes in many shapes and sizes
When I wake up each, morning, I tell myself to try
I tell myself that I will make no compromises

So days like this just get me
I hate days like today
Days when I face myself, but see the same reflection
Someone who's stuck rewriting and stuck in his own way
Someone who has to edit every imperfection

Today
Today I plan to change myself
Oh, girl, whatever
