Phoebe Bridgers - Punisher
[Verse 1]
When the speed kicks in
I go to the store for nothing
And walk right by
The house where you lived with Snow White
I wonder if she ever thought
The storybook tiles on the roof were too much
But from the window, it's not a bad show
If your favorite thing's Dianetics or stucco
[Pre-Chorus]
The drugstores are open all night
The only real reason I moved to the east side
I love a good place to hide in plain sight
[Chorus]
What if I told you
I feel like I know you?
But we never met
[Verse 2]
And here, everyone knows you're the way to my heart
Hear so many stories of you at the bar
Most times, alone, and some, looking your worst
But never not sweet to the trust funds and punishers
She has said that this song talks about Elliott Smith, who she admires so much. She said that it's "mostly about stalking Elliott Smith and being afraid that I’m a punisher — that when I talk to my heroes, that their eyes will glaze over".
