Foundations by Kate Nash

Thursday night, everything's fine
Except you've got that look in your eye
When I'm (1)______________ a story, and you (2)________ it boring
You're thinking of something to say
You'll go along (3)________ it, then (4)________ it
And humiliate me in front of our friends

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoying
And say something like,
"Yeah, intelligent input, darling.
Why don't you just have another beer then?"

Then you'll (5)________ 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 (6)________ (7)________ I should let go, but I can't
And (8)__________ 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
You said 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 that I was a bit scared
But it gives me thrills to (10)________ you up

My (11)____________________ are holding onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I know (12)________ I should let go, but I can't
And every time we (13)__________ 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 (14)________ 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 (15)__________ you (16)__________ 'till the morning
And I (17)__________________ won't (18)________ the (19)______________ on
And dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one

My fingertips are (20)______________ onto
The cracks in our foundation
And I (21)________ that I should let go, but I can't
And every (22)________ we (23)__________ I know it's not right
Every (24)________ (25)________ 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 every time we (26)__________ I know it's not right
Every time that you're upset and I smile
I know I (27)____________ forget, but I can't
