Song: It could be Greener

This song showcases Tully's propensity for optimism as she moves into the village to open her bookshop and only sees the positives. This is contrasted by the townsfolk, who all seem incredibly pessimistic in comparison.

Lyrics

Tully:

This town! Oh, I'm sure that I'll like this town Nothing could bring me down. I swear there's magic in the air Villager: That's carbon monoxide.

Tully: These folk. Well, they seem such pleasant folk. Jim: Fuck off!

Tully: That's Jim, and that's an inside joke. And he's actually a real good bloke. Villager: You know he slept with my wife?!

Tully:

They say life's only what you make it

and life will treat you like shit if you're willing to take.

You'll drink more in if you're glass if half full,

Villager: I can't eat gluten!

Villager: She's got autism.

the grass round here don't fucking grow

Tully: It could be greener, I'll admit

When I was younger, I thought that I would change the world. I don't know how, but when there's wills there's ways

or so the story says.

if done tomorrow. But I'm scared tomorrow will just be,

another one of those days.
