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 (1)________ it, then (2)________ it
And humiliate 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 just have (4)______________ 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 (5)____________________ are holding 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 (7)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
You (8)________ I must eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd rather be (9)________ your friends, mate,
'Cause they are much fitter."
Yes, it was childish
And you got aggressive
And I must admit (10)________ I was a bit scared
But it (11)__________ me thrills to wind you up

My fingertips are holding onto
The (12)____________ 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 (13)________ (14)________ you're upset and I smile
I know I (15)____________ 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 your face, 'cause it's (16)____________ me sick
You've (17)________ and got sick on my trainers
I only got (18)__________ yesterday
Oh my gosh, I cannot be bothered (19)________ 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 (20)________ 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 (21)________ I (22)____________ forget, but I can't
And every time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're (23)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
And (24)__________ time we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're (25)__________ and I smile
I know I should forget, but I can't
