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 with it, then drop it
And humiliate me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that voice (1)________ you (2)________ annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you just (3)________ another beer then?"

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

My fingertips are (5)______________ onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every (6)________ 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
You said I must eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be with (7)________ friends, mate,
'Cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I (8)________ 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 (9)________ that I (10)____________ let go, but I can't
And every time we (11)__________ I (12)________ it's not right
Every time (13)________ you're (14)__________ 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 (15)________ face, 'cause it's (16)____________ me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got (17)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered (18)________ this
Well, I'll leave you there 'till the morning
And I purposely won't turn the heating 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 (19)____________ let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (20)________ you're (21)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And (22)__________ time we (23)__________ I know it's not right
Every (24)________ that you're (25)__________ and I smile
I know I (26)____________ forget, but I can't
And every time we (27)__________ I know it's not right
Every (28)________ that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
