Mama comes home from work late night
To find her children aren't in bed
Daddy sits on the couch, sleepin'
The kids say they haven't been fed

Mama did a lot of thinkin' at night
Afterwards she thought it's a mistake
But then she comes to realize
There's lipstick on his briefcase

There's somethin wrong here
Who's not to say to maybe someday
Daddy's never home; Mama's all alone
Somethin's goin' on
Somethin's wrong here

So one day she tried him on his cell
No one was there at all
So she tried him at his work
Nobody picks up the call
'Cause Daddy's not alone; he's never comin' home
Mama says he's got a new friend
The kids think this fight will never end

There's somethin wrong here
Who's not to say to maybe someday
Daddy's never home; Mama's all alone
Somethin's goin' on
Somethin's wrong here

The kids are gonna cry
'Cause Daddy told them lies
Mama says it'll be alright
They don't know who's who
Or what to do
Now things will change

There's somethin wrong here
Who's not to say to maybe someday
Daddy's never home; Mama's all alone
Somethin's goin' on
Somethin's wrong here

Plastic Bag
Ed Sheeran
“Plastic Bag” is a song about searching for an escape from personal problems and hoping to find it in the lively atmosphere of a Saturday night party. Ed Sheeran tells the story of his friend and the myriad of troubles he is going through. Unable to find any solutions, this friend seeks a last resort in a party and the vanity that comes with it. “I overthink and have trouble sleepin’ / All purpose gone and don’t have a reason / And there’s no doctor to stop this bleedin’ / So I left home and jumped in the deep end,” Ed Sheeran sings in verse one. He continues by adding that this person is feeling the weight of having disappointed his father and doesn’t have any friends to rely on in this difficult moment. In the second verse, Ed sings about the role of grief in his friend’s plight and his dwindling faith in prayer. “Saturday night is givin’ me a reason to rely on the strobe lights / The lifeline of a promise in a shot glass, and I’ll take that / If you’re givin’ out love from a plastic bag,” Ed sings on the chorus, as his friend turns to new vices in hopes of feeling better.
