Foundations by Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got (1)________ look in (2)________ eye
When I'm (3)______________ a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along (4)________ it, then drop it
And humiliate me in (5)__________ of our friends

Then I'll use that voice that you (6)________ 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 with will be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit

My fingertips are (7)______________ onto
The (8)____________ in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And (9)__________ time we (10)__________ I (11)________ it's not right
Every time that 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 (12)________ friends, mate,
'Cause they are (13)________ fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must (14)__________ that I was a bit scared
But it (15)__________ me thrills to wind you up

My fingertips are holding onto
The (16)____________ in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And (17)__________ time we (18)__________ 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 (19)________ is pastey
'Cause you've gone and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to (20)________ at your face, 'cause it's making me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I (21)________ got (22)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered (23)________ this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I purposely won't turn the heating on
And dear God, I (24)________ I'm not (25)__________ with this one

My (26)____________________ are (27)______________ 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 (28)________ that 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 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 know I should forget, but I can't
