"F**K Was I" Lyrics:
Love grows in me like a tumor,
parasites bent on devouring its host.
I'm developing my sense of humor,
till I can laugh at my heart between your teeth,
till I can laugh at my face beneath your feet.
chorus
Skillet on the stove is such a temptation,
maybe I'll be the lucky one that doesnt get burned.
What the fuck was I thinking?
Love plows through me like a dozer,
I've got more give than a bale of hay,
and there's always a big mess left over.
What did you do?
What did you say?
Skillet on the stove is such a temptation,
maybe I'll be the special one that doesnt get burned.
What the fuck was I thinking?
Love tears me up like a demon.
Opens the wounds and fills them with lead,
and I'm having some trouble just breathing.
If we werent such good friends I think that I'd hate you.
If we weren't such good friends I'd wish you were dead
Oh it's so embarrasing
I'm this awkward and uncomprable thing,
and I'm running out of places to hide

I've never been too fond of the word "skillet". Kinda irksome.

Makes me think of Kate Nash...an American, folk-influenced Kate Nash. A bit because of her looks, but mostly her voice and especially phrasing.

I personally think she is extremely attractive. She doesnt at all look like a man, its just she has an original look that isnt like all those heartless, toothpick-esque models. Seriously, women are not meant to be living off 400 calories a day and look like an effin go-go doll.

Song's better when you can hear the "fuck". Is it such a bad word? Goodness.
