emergency contact - marnie blake lyrics

[intro]
don’t, don’t, don’t
don’t, don’t, don*don’t, don’t
don’t, don’t, don’t, don’t
don’t put me as your emergency contact
don’t, don’t, don’t

[verse 1]
nurse hands you a clipboard, pen on a chain
you write my name down before your own name
i’m in the waiting room, scrolling, unbothered
didn’t know i just got cast as your martyr
you joke, “if i flatline, they’ll call my girl”
oh, cool, yeah, love that for me and this world
you say, “relax, it’s not that deep”
i hear sirens every time i try to sleep

[pre*chorus]
you just see boxes you have to tick
i see worst*case montage, netflix quick

[chorus]
don’t put me as your emergency contact
i panic too, i’ll just spiral right back
if the world goes wrong and they call my phone
i’ll faint in the hall, then cry on the floor
don’t write my name like a fire escape
i have to google what to do in an earthquake
you need someone calm when the sky turns black
not your favorite emotional car crash
[post*chorus]
emergency contact, contact
no, i can’t promise i’ll react (no)
emergency contact, contact
i’m not built for that

[refrain]
don’t, don’t, don’t
don’t, don’t
don’t put me as your emergency contact
don’t, don’t

[verse 2]
on your fridge there’s a magnet list
mom, dad, sister, vet, therapist
i see my name under”call in a crisis”
like”if he stops breathing, this girl’s got this”
i’d bring the wrong bag, forget your meds
trip on the curb, almost break my neck
if they page my name on a hospital speaker
i’ll get lost in the gift shop, like, “anyone see her?”

[pre*chorus]
i’m not your mother, i’m not your priest
i’m the one who texts”help” then falls asleep
[chorus]
so don’t put me as your emergency contact
i panic too, i’ll just spiral right back
if the worst goes down and they call my phone
i’ll love you to death and still not cope
don’t write me down like a paramedic
can’t trust me, i’m clinically erratic
you need someone calm when the sky turns black
not your favorite emotional car crash

[post*chorus]
emergency contact, contact
no, i can’t promise i’ll react (no)
emergency contact, contact

[refrain]
don’t put me as your emergency contact
don’t, don’t

[chorus]
don’t put me as your emergency contact
i panic too, i’ll just spiral right back
if the world goes wrong and they call my phone
i’ll drop it on the floor, pretend i’m not home
don’t write my name in that little sad box
i still cry at movie scores and tiktoks (oh)
you need someone calm when the sky turns black
not your favorite emotional car crash
[post*chorus]
emergency contact, contact
you laugh and say, “too late for that”
emergency contact, contact
god, i hope we never have to test that

[outro]
don’t, don’t, don’t
don’t, don’t
don’t put me as your emergency contact
don’t, don’t, don’t
