CONTEXT

You thought you signed up for a classic squad brunch. You were wrong.

LYRICS

Listen as you read on Tidal, Spotify, Apple Music

Did she swap your mimosa? Its nearly half gone
Macy’s always lamenting about her ex-boo—Tom
Can’t help but to hear a savvy voice in the ear of a mother from the neighbouring booth
But she’s at her wits end she needed a friend but now she’s thinking bout a rocky vermouth

You only came out for fun
But now there’s too much going on at once
There’s tension at brunch

There’s a hand on your thigh. Oh my oh my
But you’re sitting right across from the other guy (Rocco)
Well now conveniently, you feel you need to pee, you excuse yourself and retreat
Incoming MMS, from Ms. Handsy’s ex, the evidence was as clear as could be

Now he’s got you under the gun
I swear it’s only her that’s tryna get some
There’s tension at brunch

You were halfway out the window when your pants snagged
Now you’re laying on the floor with a chilly leg
Security came in to see the source of the bang
And now they lifted the by your elbows and knees right past the whole gang

Bewilderment in everyone
Rocco calling you a dunce
There’s tension at brunch
