Drowning in Cardboard

Cláudio Fontenelle

Girl, I bought the candles, I bought the wine
Thought we were vibing, thought you were mine
But I see you there on bending knee
Sorting out the tokens of bending knee

Sorting out the tokens, 1973
You're counting the cards, you're checking the dice
Ignoring my heart while you're checking the price
Oh, it's an impossible love, it's a tragedy

I'm competing with the pieces, mystery mansion
And risk is you're my queen, you're my soul
But you're building a fort of vintage wood boxes
And rules of every sort, I'm tripping over clue

Girl, what can I do? I'm losing my mind
And I'm losing my boo, I'm losing my mind
And I'm losing my food, yeah, the plastic still wrapped
On that forbidden bridge, while I'm looking

For love and a snack in the fridge
You say the insert is meant, girl, that's fine
But when are you going to put your hands in mine
But when are you going to put your hands in mine

You got every expansion, every special edition
Making me feel like a side of board mission
Oh, it's an impossible love, it's a tragedy
I'm competing with the pieces, mystery mansion

And risk is, you're my queen, you're my soul
But you're building a fort of vintage wood boxes
And rules of every sort, I'm tripping over clue
Girl, what can I do?

I'm losing my mind
And I'm losing my boo, I'm losing my mind
And I'm losing my boo

Is this a game? No, no
Are we just players? Oh, baby
I just want to turn a single turn
From the campaign for North Africa to Candy Land

I'm drowning in cardboard, baby
Oh, it's an impossible love, it's a tragedy
I'm competing with the pieces, mystery mansion
And risk, you're my queen, you're my soul

But you're building a fort of vintage wood boxes
And rules of every soul, I'm tripping over clue
Girl, what can I do?
Can I losing my mind? Then

I'm losing my losing my mind
Can I do I'm losing my mind?
Is the rule book really that thick?
Yeah, I'll just play by myself then

Sorry girl, it's just a game you play
Yeah, get gone with your meeples gone
