Foundations by Kate Nash
Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that (1)________ in your eye
When I'm (2)______________ a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of (3)__________________ to say
You'll go along with it, then (4)________ it
And (5)__________________ me in front of our friends
Then I'll use (6)________ voice (7)________ you find annoying
And say (8)__________________ 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 that I (9)____________ let go, but I can't
And (10)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I (11)____________ forget, but I can't
You (12)________ I (13)________ eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be (14)________ your friends, mate,
'Cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must (15)__________ (16)________ I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to (17)________ you up
My fingertips 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 that you're upset 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 look at your face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got (18)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered with this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I purposely won't turn the (19)______________ on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And (20)__________ time we (21)__________ I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every (22)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time (23)________ you're (24)__________ 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
