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)__________ (2)________ it, then drop it
And humiliate 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 just have another beer then?"

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

My (5)____________________ are holding onto
The (6)____________ in our foundation
And I know (7)________ I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I (8)________ it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I (9)____________ 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 they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I (10)________ admit 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 that I should let go, but I can't
And (11)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (12)________ you're (13)__________ and I smile
I (14)________ I should forget, but I can't
Your face is pastey
'Cause you've (15)________ and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at your face, 'cause it's (16)____________ me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I (17)________ got these yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be (18)________________ with this
Well, I'll leave you (19)__________ 'till the morning
And I purposely won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I hope I'm not (20)__________ (21)________ (22)________ one

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