Discover the story of the song > Scott Street – Phoebe Bridgers

The protagonist is walking down Scott Street feeling like she doesn't belong. She's drinking a beer and feeling lonely, but she's earned the money to buy that beer. She talks to her romantic partner about their family and friends, but it seems like everyone is moving on and getting married. The chorus asks if her partner feels ashamed of her, and the bridge repeats "Don't be a stranger" as a plea to stay connected.
