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 along (1)________ it, then drop it
And (2)__________________ me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that voice (3)________ you find annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you (4)________ have another (5)________ then?"

Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with (6)________ be embarrassed
And I won't (7)________ a shit

My (8)____________________ are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (9)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You said I (10)________ eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be with your friends, mate,
'Cause they are (11)________ fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must admit that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to wind you up

My fingertips are holding onto
The (12)____________ in our foundation
And I know (13)________ I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I (14)________ it's not right
Every time (15)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pastey
'Cause you've (16)________ and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at (17)________ face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I (18)________ got these yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be (19)________________ with this
Well, I'll leave you (20)__________ 'till the morning
And I (21)__________________ won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with (22)________ one

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I (23)____________ let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (24)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, 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 that you're upset and I smile
I (27)________ I should forget, but I can't
