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 (1)__________________ to say
You'll go along with it, then (2)________ it
And (3)__________________ me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you just have another (4)________ then?"

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

My fingertips are holding onto
The (6)____________ in our foundation
And I (7)________ that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (8)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I should 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 (9)________ are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must (10)__________ that I was a bit scared
But it gives me (11)______________ to wind you up

My (12)____________________ are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (13)________ I should let go, but I can't
And (14)__________ time we fight I (15)________ it's not right
Every (16)________ that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't

You've (19)________ and got sick on my trainers
I only got (20)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I (21)____________ be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I purposely won't (22)________ the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not (23)__________ with this one

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