lyrics
Getting in late, with the man, from the pool place.
Eating a pie, talking about it, and smiling, at the table in the front room.
Outside it looks like a lake, but it is dark. Anyway,
my back was hurting, cos of how I was sitting,
but I didn’t sit up, no, I didn’t sit up, I did the opposite,
slouched down, further, into / It is alright, it is okay, I know
what I am doing, is not what you think that
I should be doing.
And what am I menna do about that?
Go out and get asked about:
‘You coming on... You and…’
‘Alright, I’ll have an ask about it… What do you think?’
‘No.’
‘Me neither, but if you want we’ll go.’
‘Well, I’m not bothered.’
‘I know, he’s a prick, so that’s a decision made then, isn’t it?’
We’re going. Tonight, though, I’m on my own, just cos I have to be, sometimes. Like a sink needs filling to prove to a boy it won’t overflow. ‘It’s got a mechanism.’ And I think that, mine is broken.
There’s hairs on everything.
I’m afraid of being afraid,
feeling like a week day…
no I don’t like that line.
No one is
calling on the
phone, I say I
don’t have,
but I do,
Ha ha. Why am I
doing this to myself,
for what purpose and to what ends.
No one is calling on the phone I say I don’t have,
but I do, Ha ha. Why am I doing this to myself,
for what purpose and to what ends.
Heading for the door, a man to keep the audience in
check out my new whatever, you look silly in
all that plaid is paid for by the company
I would like to know what it
smells like in your head, when it
rains you moan about it like in summer you’ll be pleased,
smoking cos of not knowing what to say
outside the place, looking at the floor, when he says,
‘You don’t remember me, do you?’
No. Who is that?
And so,
unplug the kettle, shut the fridge, emptied the bin
last week, an air freshener appeared in the kitchen, I
rubbed it on myself, when I was pissed, you tryna
tell me some thing – woke up, in the night, fell into the
washing line, which was outside at the time, and so was I.
This is gonna hurt, a little off the top, talk talk,
wearing it out, like you, look like these people are
hollow, and, not helping you, see yourself, in the
mirror when you go out you look wonderful.
Applying lipstick now, in the taxi into town,
talk about so-an-so at the place is a
face you would like to drown out the sound of it
happening all at once. This is us, alright. Alright, ta.
Seven fifty. I think next time we’ll be taking the bus.
So at the place with the people and the drinks and food,
we got separated, I was cornered by a man.
Saw you cross the room talkin with someone talkin at you,
you looked lost, me too, we left and went elsewhere.
