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 (3)__________ of our friends

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, (4)______________________ input, darling.
Why don't you just have another 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 fingertips are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know that I should let go, but I can't
And every (5)________ we fight I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I (6)____________ forget, but I can't
You said I must eat so many lemons
'Cause I am so bitter
I said, "I'd (7)____________ 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 fingertips are holding 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 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 (8)________ 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 turn the (9)______________ 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 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 should forget, 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 should forget, but I can't
And (10)__________ 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
