Throwin' Up StRaWbErRiEs
Emmy Meli Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I've got a funny story to tell
About when I was eighteen and My life was hell
Found out a boy I loved broke My heart
Then I had an incident in a Parking lot
Beer before liquor never been Sicker
Never kissed a random ass boy Quicker
Should've heeded the warnings Had appointments in the Morning
Eight am mom's tugging at my Feet
She said you got a therapist to Meet

I'm throwing up strawberries
In my therapists parking lot
I've got yeah I've got a lot wrong With me
Probably shouldn't have taken That shot
Mom got up early made me Breakfast and lunch
I'm throwing up strawberries in My therapists parking lot

There's an important lesson to Be learned in the story that you Just heard
If you don't pay attention then i'd Be concerned
Looks can be deceiving if he's Posting and deleting
Then baby he's cheating
You don't wanna end up like me
Eight am mom's tugging at my feet

I'm throwing up strawberries
In my therapists parking lot
I've got yeah I've got a lot wrong With me
Probably shouldn't have taken That shot
Mom got up early made me Breakfast and lunch
I'm throwing up strawberries in My therapists parking lot

Sorry Jennifer
I didn't run down
To get your check
But I think someone
Should check on my head
From down here
The sky looks so blue
But I am hoping
Next session
I'll get a better view

I'm throwing up strawberries
In my therapists parking lot
I've got yeah I've got a lot wrong With me
Probably shouldn't have taken That shot




Mom got up early made me Breakfast and lunch
I'm throwing up strawberries in My therapists parking lot
