Just for HF

Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin' and say something like
"yeah, intelligent input, darlin', 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 wont give a shit.

My finger tips 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.

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.

My finger tips are holding on to 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.

Was that written by a 5 year old ?
 
The literary skills of Kate Nash are that of SATS 5-7 Levels

But here's my favourite part

''Then I'll use that voice that you find annoyin' and say something like
"yeah, intelligent input, darlin', why don't you just have another beer then?"''


Can't say I've taken much notice of the lyrics it just keeps coming on Channel M whenever I'm watching it
 
Especially for Highland Fox

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now

I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now


In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?


Two lovers entwined pass me by
And heaven knows I'm miserable now


I was looking for a job, and then I found a job
And heaven knows I'm miserable now
In my life
Oh, why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?


What she asked of me at the end of the day
Caligula would have blushed


"You've been in the house too long" she said
And I (naturally) fled


In my life
Why do I smile
At people who I'd much rather kick in the eye ?


I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour
But heaven knows I'm miserable now


"You've been in the house too long" she said
And I (naturally) fled


In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don't care if I live or die ?
 
Sittin' lone inside my head
No mirrors to reflect
Is this here the season of joy
Or the season to inject
Lord this must be judgment day
Take a close look at myself
Are you happy?
With the hand that you've been dealt

The bells they toll silently
Inflict invisible pain
Tell me which is more righteous
Chivas Regal or cocaine
Friends won't answer your phone calls
Call your long distance family
Well I hope someone is listening
As I sing on bandaged knees

On this holy day
I took to the skies
Are you tryin' to find yourself
Or just rearrange the time
Open up your spirit boy
Pass that liquid love
Do you prefer possesions
Or the purity of the dove

Sing to me my little sister of mercy
Inspiration of my life
You know I can't stand the pain
But you know that I never cry
I play for you my love song
Sung only for the damned
I wish I could spend tonight with you
But you know that I can't

Look inside my black lines
Telling stories without couth
You might not like what they say
Cause they only speak the truth
Play for me tarot
Slip my neck through the belt
You can't change the ways of the game
When the cards are already dealt
 
I'm wretched, I'm infested, rejected and infected
I'm a loser, I'm a winner, a born-again sinner
Cut my throat and watch me bleed, addicted tragedy
And I hate you and you hate me
So stand in line motherfcukers don't waste my time

See me in the headlines
Manipulate your simple minds
So put your hands up and praise
I'm your god and you're my slave

And people hate me, cause I'm better than you
And people hate me
And that's the motherfcuking truth
People hate me and you can all fcuk off
I'm perfect, pissed off, beautiful, I'm God


I'm a hooker, I'm your priest
I'm you brand new disease
I'm Satan with distortion, your overdue abortion
And now I'm singing out of key, the God of your T.V.
And all you children will worship me
So give me drugs, your bitches, and your S.T.D'

And people hate me, cause I'm better than you
And people hate me
And that's the motherfcuking truth
People hate me and you can all fcuk off
I'm perfect, pissed off, beautiful, I'm God


I'm wicked and addicted, middle-finger double-fisted
I'm neurotic drug-induced and chemically abused
Cut my throat and watch me bleed
Addicted tragedy
And I hate you and you hate me
Wipe the snot onto my sleeve
For I'm your new disease

See me in the headlines
Manipulate your simple minds
So put your hands up and praise, I'm your God...

I'm homicide on parade, a bloody nose, serenade
I'm a human hand grenade
I'll never rot and never go away

And people hate me, cause I'm better than you
And people hate me
And that's the motherfcuking truth
People hate me and you can all fcuk off
I'm perfect, pissed off, beautiful, I'm God

I'd like to dedicate these lyrics.....but I won't :icon_lol:

Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall
Like the seashore clings to the sea
Like you'll never get rid of your shadow
Frank, you'll never get rid of me

Let all the others fight and fuss
Whatever happens, we've got us.

Me and my shadow
We're closer than pages that stick in a book
We're closer than ripples that play in a brook
Strolling down the avenue
Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look
Closer than a miser or the bloodhound's to Liza
Me and my shadow
We're closer than smog when it clings to L.A.
We're closer than Bobby is to J.F.K.
Not a soul can bust this team in two
We stick together like glue

And when it's sleeping time
That's when we rise
We start to swing
Swing to the skies
Our clocks don't chime
What a surprise
They ring-a-ding-ding!
Happy New Year!

Me and my shadow
And now to repeat what I said at the start
They'll need a large crowbar to break us apart
We're alone but far from blue

Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar
We'll make all the late spots, and then a few more
We'll wind up at Jilly's right after Toot's Shore
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
(Here comes the party!)
For my shadow and me!

Say Frank?
What is it, Sam?
Do me a favor?
What do you want, now?
Would you mind taking it, just one more time?
From the top?
No! From the ending!
Wonderful!

And while we are swinging, to mention a few
We'll drop in at Danny's, The Little Club too
But wind up at Jilly's, whatever we do
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee!
(Wow!)
For my shadow and me!

Frank?
Oh, forget it Sam.
 
It's hard to argue when
you won't stop making sense
But my tongue still misbehaves and it
keeps digging my own grave with my

Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens

Why would I sabotage
the best thing that I have
Well, it makes it easier to know
exactly what I want with my...

Hands open and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
that your heart opens

It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy

Put Sufjan Stevens on
and we'll play your favorite song
"Chicago" bursts to life and your
sweet smile remembers you, my

Hands open, and my eyes open
I just keep hoping
That your heart opens

It's not as easy as willing it all to be right
Gotta be more than hoping it's right
I wanna hear you laugh like you really mean it
Collapse into me, tired with joy
 
You know I never
I never seen you look so good
You never act the way you should
But I like it
And I know you like it too
The way that I want you
I gotta have you
Oh yes, I do

You know I never
I never ever stay out late
You know that I can hardly wait
Just to see you
And I know you cannot wait
Wait to see me too
I gotta touch you

Cause baby we’ll be
At the drive-in
In the old man’s ford
Behind the bushes
Till I’m screamin’ for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me

You know I call you
I call you on the telephone
I’m only hoping that you’re home
So I can hear you
When you say those words to me
And whisper so softly
I gotta hear you

Cause baby we’ll be
At the drive-in
In the old man’s ford
Behind the bushes
Till I’m screamin’ for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me

C.c. pick up that guitar and talk to me

Cause baby we’ll be
At the drive-in
In the old man’s ford
Behind the bushes
Till I’m screamin’ for more
Down the basement
Lock the cellar door
And baby
Talk dirty to me
 
I steal to feed, i fight to breathe, through hunger not greed
I find these days it's the only way i can survive
What have i done with my life ?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide ?
Ooh, in this dusty city with all the gods on the hill
Will not one of them help us ?
The temple which they built is an empty shell
The people who i see, scurrying on the streets, oblivious to our needs
I wonder sometimes how so many could be so blind ?
What have i done with my life ?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide ?
What have i done with my life ?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide ?
Today i stole the sun from the sky,
The color from the heart of a rose
Today i took food from the hand of a starving child
What have i done with my life ?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide ?
What have i done with my life ?
Is this the end, when two worlds collide ?
(i guess that makes me a bad man) (3x)
 
There are things that I regret
Like being called a nervous wreck
And working up another sweat for you
Theres nothing that I can do
For counterparts and bleeding hearts
And all the things that fall apart for you
I dont keep my secrets there
I hide them everywhere
I could deny
But Ill never realise
Im just chasing rainbows
All the time
I could deny
But Ill never realise
Ive been chasing rainbows
All my life

And then I missed my cue
Everybody had a laugh
And then went for an early bath
Did you
I dont keep my secrets there
I hide them everywhere
 
So I find myself among
The brave south western hills
Running like a mad man on the moor!
Let the sweet Atlantic rain
Wash away my ills
The men-an-tol shone strangely in the storm

I get the strangest feeling in the air around
It's more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
.. something I believe in


Here among the city lights
The feelings not so clean
Neon lights and faceless signs
Hide what I hold dear
But it's there to find if you have the mind
And you don't live in fear of it

I rest among what still remains
Of lives that passed before
Lighting strikes the top of zennor tor
I find myself amazed again
At man's pathetic score
Years of knowledge wasted and ignored

I get the strangest feeling in the air around
It's more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
A different kind of life
Something I believe in

I get the strangest feeling
It's more than just a feeli

I get the strangest feeling
It's more than just a feeling
A different way of seeing
Something I believe in
 
I see a red door and I want it painted black,
no colours anymore I want them to turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
I have to turn my head until the darkness goes.

I see a line of cars and they're all painted black,
with flowers and my love, both never to come back.
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away,
like a newborn baby it just happens every day.

I look inside my self and see my heart is back,
I see my red door and I want it painted black.
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts,
it's not easy facing up when your whole world is black.

No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue,
I could not forsee this thing happening to you.
If I look hard enough into the setting sun,
my love will laugh with me before the morning comes.

I see a red door and I want it painted black,
no colours anymore I want them ot turn black.
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes,
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes.
 
They say what do I know
They say my heads in the clouds cuz I don't like what I see down below
They say Come back to Earth and start again will ya

I go through time and space
I see the moon and the stars and the teardrops streaming down your face
They say Come back to Earth and start again will ya

You are the one I've waited for
I just want things to be the same or much better than before
They say Come back to Earth and start again will ya

Dont wanna ''They say Come back to Earth and start again will ya '' I know I can't

YouYou You are the one I've waited for
I said Its You You You
 
I don't want the world to see me
Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am
 
Thought there was nothing left for me
I gave up on destiny
'til she came floating by
I felt like I'd always known her face
Hail Mary full of grace
You're drinking my lake dry

But my eyes are streaming
And my head is spinning
And I don't know how I don't know why
You stop speaking and my heart stops beating
And I don't know how I don't know why

Thought there was nowhere left to go
She's like a prisms colour flow
So constant and unreal
Things sort a happen so it goes
In a town of fallen souls
I find it hard to feel
 
The ladies' bra's,
The ladies' bra's,
The ladies' knickers and
The ladies' bra's.

The ladies' bra's,
The ladies' bra's,
The ladies' knickers and
The ladies' bra's..........
