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)__________ with it, then drop it
And (2)__________________ me in front of our friends
Then I'll use that voice that you find annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, (3)______________________ input, darling.
Why don't you (4)________ have another beer then?"
Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't (5)________ a shit
My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I (6)________ that I (7)____________ let go, but I can't
And every time we (8)__________ I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I (9)________ I should forget, but I can't
You (10)________ I must eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd (11)____________ be with your friends, mate,
'Cause (12)________ are much 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 (13)______________ 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 (14)____________ forget, but I can't
Your (15)________ is pastey
'Cause you've (16)________ and got so wasted
What a surprise
Don't want to look at your face, 'cause it's (17)____________ me sick
You've gone and got sick on my trainers
I only got these 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 heating on
And (18)________ God, I hope I'm not (19)__________ with this one
My fingertips are holding onto
The (20)____________ in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I (21)________ it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And (22)__________ (23)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every (24)________ 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 (25)________ that you're upset and I smile
