Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Moved my whole life into the blue-and-yellow maze
Showroom bedroom's got that perfect morning haze
My lease is just a flat-packed dream I built for free
The bunk beds have a hideaway that's made for me
[Chorus]
Living the life in Ikea
Sleeping where the families tour
Living the life in Ikea
Every couch is mine to claim
The wardrobe's got no door
[Verse 2]
Every dawn I rearrange the living-room sets
Twelve sofas in a perfect grid inside my debt
I trade the bookshelf left for right just for the fun
The assembly takes four people but I'm only one
[Chorus]
Living the life in Ikea
Cooking meatballs in the pan
Living the life in Ikea
Every lamp is on my plan
The price tags all say hey there man
[Pre-Chorus]
I shower in the bathroom model
I shave beside the sink
The sprinklers think I'm troublesome
But I just smile and wink
[Chorus]
Living the life in Ikea
Sleeping where the families tour
Living the life in Ikea
Every couch is mine to claim
The wardrobe's got no door
[Bridge]
Mmm the kitchen displays decked with plates I've never bought
The candle aisle is cozy and the rugs are soft
I built a fort of Billy bookshelves tower high
Then a security guard walks up and says goodbye
[Chorus]
Living the life in Ikea
Till my handcuffs start to chime
Living the life in Ikea
Got a crooked smile but one more time
The trespassing sign said under mine
[Outro]
Mm yeah the meatballs tasted crime
Mm but the money I did save
Now I'm just a showroom in a holding cage
Living the life in Ikea
