Prompt / Lyrics
[Verse 1] I’m doing the dish laundry I folded all the soup I vacuumed up the cereal And put the forks on mute I watered the bed this morning Brushed my teeth with soap Your name is in my mouth somewhere Just tangled in the rope [Chorus] Don’t mind me I’m just mis-remembering Mixing up the words in my head I’m hanging up the carpet Baby Tucking in the bread Laugh while I can still mis-say you Before you slip behind the fog I’m doing the dish laundry Darling And losing pieces as I talk [Verse 2] I walked the fridge around the block The dog is in the pan I left my keys inside my shoes Then asked them who I am I kissed you in the microwave Said “good night” to the TV I know you’re someone that I love The label’s leaving me [Chorus] Don’t mind me I’m just mis-remembering Mixing up the words in my head I’m hanging up the carpet Baby Tucking in the bread Laugh while I can still mis-say you Before you slip behind the fog I’m doing the dish laundry Darling And losing pieces as I talk [Bridge] I called you “mum” and “kid” and “stranger” All in one small breath (oh) I joke about my scrambled grammar ‘Cause the quiet feels like death So hold my hand while I’m still here Even when my tongue runs wrong If I forget the way to say you Just listen to this song [Chorus] Don’t mind me I’m just mis-remembering Mixing up the words in my head I’m hanging up the carpet Baby Tucking in the bread Laugh while I can still mis-say you Before I’m drifting in that fog I’m doing the dish laundry Darling Please remember us when I’m gone

Quirky indie-folk with bittersweet humor, male vocals. Light acoustic guitar and brushed kit under a playful, shuffling groove; piano doubles the vocal on key punchlines. Verses stay intimate and close-mic; chorus widens with warm harmonies that underline the heartbreak inside the comedy. Subtle organ swells and glockenspiel hits accent the “wrong” words, ending on a soft, unresolved chord.
