Foundations by Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm telling a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go (1)__________ with it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that voice that you (2)________ annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you just (3)________ another beer then?"

Then you'll call me a bitch
And (4)________________ we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't (5)________ a shit

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I (6)________ that 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 (7)____________ forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be with your friends, mate,
'Cause (8)________ are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must (9)__________ that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to wind you up

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (10)________ 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
Your (11)________ is pastey
'Cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at your face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I (12)________ got (13)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I (14)____________ be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I (15)__________________ won't turn the (16)______________ on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one

My fingertips are (17)______________ onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I (18)________ (19)________ I should let go, but I can't
And (20)__________ (21)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time (22)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I (23)____________ forget, but I can't
And (24)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I (25)____________ forget, but I can't
And every time we fight I (26)________ it's not right
Every time that you're (27)__________ and I smile
I know I (28)____________ forget, but I can't
