about

tapping through instagram stories: the song

lyrics

i'm tangled in vines while andy’s drunk on wine
tryin’ to unwind the word web wallace left behind
laurie’s loaded with lackluster clothes
and i’m stuck spyin’ on everyone i know

deedee’s dead behind the eyes, and she can’t find her shadow
sally’s shedding skin, posing solo for photos
ashley’s anger issues, advertised for all to see
shoutin’ to an empty audience ‘i dare yall to try me’

oh to be a wasp on the wall
always subjected to it all
noticin’ everything from the nest
in the nook where i’ve been neglected
can’t turn a blind eye to the buzz and broadcast
swarmin’ round the sweet sting of bein’ stared at

ricky’s rockin’ on the roof, reachin for reasons to exist
while debbie’s drunk and dancing at the dj set
silly straw sips molly, the drink sharin’ her name
polly produced a play by play of her unproductive day

oh to be a wasp on the wall
always subjected to it all
noticin’ everything from the nest
in the nook where i’ve been neglected
can’t turn a blind eye to the buzz and broadcast
swarmin’ round the sweet sting of bein’ stared at

no one needs to know what you’re up to all the time
but to be a wasp on the wall is to live a modern life
we walk in swarms of social spies, searching for shiny eyes
even lonely nests crave friendly flies

oh to be a wasp on the wall
always subjected to it all
noticin’ everything from the nest
in the nook where i’ve been neglected
can’t turn a blind eye to the buzz and broadcast
swarmin’ round the sweet sting of bein’ stared at
