lyrics

Kirsty'd tear her nails right down your back
Like a blackboard scraping
Covered high walls with NME and blu-tack
Put a Lou Reed tape in
Drown out the sounds of everyday
Headphones handy
Block barbed insults, fly her way
Like poisoned candy

Kirsty, pale freckled and small
When will you screw them all?

Take their armour
Like tracing paper
Eat their insults
Save them for later

Kirsty shone when no-one else was around
Sod's law in motion
Melodies like diamonds out of her mouth
Pure emotion
Kirsty paints her jeans with dye from a jar
She's an indie sweetheart
Given up on fitting in with the ya's
She turns street smart

Kirsty, pale freckled and small
When will you screw them all?

Take their armour
Like tracing paper
Eat their insults
Save them for later
