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 along with it, (2)________ drop it
And humiliate me in (3)__________ of our friends

Then I'll use that voice (4)________ you (5)________ 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 (6)________ be embarrassed
And I won't give a shit

My fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I (7)________ that I (8)____________ let go, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time (9)________ you're (10)__________ 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 (11)________ your friends, mate,
'Cause they are (12)________ fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I (13)________ 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 every (14)________ 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've (15)________ 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 (16)______________ on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck (17)________ (18)________ one

My (19)____________________ are (20)______________ onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (21)________ I should let go, but I can't
And (22)__________ (23)________ we fight I (24)________ 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 (25)__________ 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 (26)__________ 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
