Foundations by Kate Nash
Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that (1)________ in your eye
When I'm telling a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along with it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends
Then I'll use (2)________ voice that you (3)________ annoying
And say (4)__________________ like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you just have another beer then?"
Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (5)________ I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so (6)________ lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be (7)________ your friends, mate,
'Cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must admit that I was a bit scared
But it gives me (8)______________ to wind you up
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I (9)____________ let go, but I can't
And every (10)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're (11)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pastey
'Cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to (12)________ at (13)________ face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've (14)________ and got (15)________ on my trainers
I only got these yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be (16)________________ with this
Well, I'll leave you (17)__________ 'till the morning
And I purposely won't (18)________ the heating on
And dear God, I (19)________ I'm not (20)__________ (21)________ this one
