KATE NASH LYRICS - Foundations

"Foundations"



Thursday night,

everything's fine,

Except you've got that look in your eyes,

when I'm telling a story

And you find it boring you're thinking of something to say.

You'll go along with and then drop it

And you humiliate me, in front of our friends.



Then I'll use that voice what you find annoyin'

And say something like

"intelligent input darlin' why don't you just have another beer then?"



Then you call me a bitch and everyone we're with will be embarrassed,

and I won't give a shit.



[Chorus:]

My fingertips are holding onto the

cracks in our foundations,

and I know that I should let go,

but I can't.

And everytime we fight I know it's not right,

everytime 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 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.



[Chorus]



Your face is pasty,

'cause you've gone 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 mornin',

and I purposely won't turn the heating on

and dear God, I hope I'm not stuck with this one.



[Chorus]



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.

[x2]
