[Verse 1] You said "help me with the laundry" I said "sure How hard could it be?" Now I'm trapped inside this cotton puzzle Twisted corners staring back at me [Chorus] Why is folding fitted sheets Harder than my deepest fears Every time I think I've got it It just laughs and disappears I wrestle with elastic dreams In a battle I repeat If loving you was half this tricky We'd still be tangled in these sheets (oh yeah) [Verse 2] I try that fancy tuck-the-edges trick Watched three videos Still feels like a myth You walk in Two moves It's perfect I'm just standing here like "what is this?" [Chorus] Why is folding fitted sheets Harder than my deepest fears Every time I think I've got it It just laughs and disappears I wrestle with elastic dreams In a battle I repeat If loving you was half this tricky We'd still be tangled in these sheets (hey!) [Bridge] [Drums drop to toms Claps come in] Maybe someday I'll learn the secret Or maybe I'll just hide the mess Stuff it deep inside the closet Call it "abstract organized at best" [Chorus] Why is folding fitted sheets Harder than my wildest plans Every corner keeps escaping Like it's slipping through my hands I wrestle with elastic dreams Yeah This fabric always cheats Guess I'll just keep looking clueless While you dance between the sheets
