Foundations by Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in (1)________ eye
When I'm telling a story, and you find it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go (2)__________ with 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 (4)________ (5)______________ beer then?"

Then you'll call me a bitch
And everyone we're with will be embarrassed
And I won't (6)________ a shit

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (7)________ I should 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 know I should forget, but I can't
You (9)________ I (10)________ 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 must admit that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to wind you up

My (11)____________________ are holding onto
The (12)____________ in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And (13)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I (14)________ I (15)____________ forget, but I can't
Your (16)________ is pastey
'Cause you've (17)________ 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 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 (18)________ the heating on
And dear God, I (19)________ I'm not stuck (20)________ 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 every (21)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're (22)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And (23)__________ time we (24)__________ I know it's not right
Every time (25)________ you're (26)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every (27)________ that you're (28)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
