Dont get mad at an inanimate object

Dont get mad at an inanimate object

indie-pop / pop

Seven verses of evidence. The LEGO on the floor, the ketchup bottle, the shopping cart with the wobbly wheel — each one presented like a case in small claims court where the defendant can’t testify because it’s a zipper. The spoken outro lands exactly right: “Seriously though, it’s a table. It doesn’t care.” Words to live by, honestly.

    Lyrics
    [Verse 1]
    You stubbed your toe on the coffee table leg
    Now you're yellin' at it like it owes you somethin'
    But that table's been sittin' in the same spot
    Since the day you put it there  it ain't done nothin'
    
    [Chorus]
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It don't accomplish nothin'
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It ain't gonna change a thing
    
    [Verse 2]
    The LEGO on the floor didn't set a trap
    It was just layin' there mindin' its own business
    You're the one who walked around without your shoes
    Now you're prosecutin' plastic  where's your witness?
    
    [Chorus]
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It don't accomplish nothin'
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It ain't gonna change a thing
    
    [Verse 3]
    The door got slammed and you caught your finger
    Now you're starin' it down like it's got a vendetta
    But doors don't think and doors don't plan
    Maybe next time just hold on a little better
    
    [Chorus]
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It don't accomplish nothin'
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It ain't gonna change a thing
    
    [Verse 4]
    Your zipper's stuck and you're losin' your mind
    Yankin' on it like it's doin' this on purpose
    But a zipper's just some teeth on a track
    Gettin' angry only makes it worse  trust us
    
    [Verse 5]
    The ketchup bottle won't give you a drop
    So you're squeezin' it and shakin' it and callin' it names
    Then it splatters on your shirt like a crime scene
    And you only got yourself to blame
    
    [Chorus]
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It don't accomplish nothin'
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It ain't gonna change a thing
    
    [Bridge]
    It can't hear you, it can't feel you
    It don't even know your name
    So take a breath and shake it off
    'Cause you're the only one to blame
    
    [Verse 6]
    The shopping cart pulls to the left every time
    You're wrestlin' it down the aisle like a rodeo
    But that cart don't have a brain or a plan
    It's just got a wobbly wheel  let it go
    
    [Verse 7]
    Your phone just died at two percent
    Right when you needed it the most
    Now you're lecturin' a rectangle of glass
    Like it's gonna feel bad  but it won't even come close
    
    [Chorus]
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It don't accomplish nothin'
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    It ain't gonna change a thing
    
    [Outro]
    (Spoken, half-laughing)
    Seriously though  it's a table
    It doesn't care
    Just... walk it off
    
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    (It don't accomplish nothin')
    Don't get mad at an inanimate object
    Just laugh it off and keep on walkin'
