[Verse 1]
Boarding pass
Screenshot saved
Tiny cup of juice
(yeah, first wave)
Plastic peanuts
Branded pen
I’m maximizing
Every cent
Robot voice
Reads the form
“State your purpose
Of this tour”
Tick the box
Then add a line
“Research waffles
Tastes divine”
[Chorus]
Per diem paradise
Sign on the dotted line
Turn every taxi ride into a silver shine
Little receipt
Big dream
That’s the vibe I claim
Filing my feelings as “misc. travel gain” (hey!)
Per diem paradise
Baby
I itemize
Hotel soap souvenirs under “supplies”
If joy had a code I’d type it all the same
Turn my life into a clever travel claim
[Verse 2]
Conference badge
Neon string
Took a photo
Called it “training”
Local snack
“Cultural need”
Yes
This gelato
Helps me read
“Client lunch”
Table for one
I brief the sugar
On the plan
Upload
Attach
Caption tight
“Market insights
Late at night”
[Chorus]
Per diem paradise
Sign on the dotted line
Turn every taxi ride into a silver shine
Little receipt
Big dream
That’s the vibe I claim
Filing my feelings as “misc. travel gain” (oh yeah)
Per diem paradise
Baby
I itemize
Sunset commute listed under “supplies”
If joy had a code I’d type it all the same
Turn my life into a clever travel claim
[Bridge]
[Beat drops
Sax riff zigzags around a monotone chant]

Love in the notes
Of the claims I made
Trip by trip
Line by line
You in the comments
Saying “looks fine” (looks fine)
[Chorus]
Per diem paradise
Sign on the dotted line
Turn every taxi ride into a silver shine
Little receipt
Big dream
That’s the vibe I claim
Filing my feelings as “misc. travel gain”
Per diem paradise
Baby
I itemize
Jokes in the margins as a thin disguise
If joy had a code I’d type it all the same
Turn our life into a clever travel claim
