kate nash - we get on

simply knowing you exist ain't good enough for me
but asking for you telephone number
seems highly inappropriate

seeing as i can't
you don't say hi
as you walk by

and that time you shook my hand it felt so nice
i swear i never felt this way about any other guy
and i never usually notice people's eyes but..

I conducted a plan to bump in to you most accidentally
but i was walking along and i bumped into you
much more heavily that i'd originally planned
it was well embarrassing and i think you thought that i was a bit of a twat

i just think that we'd get on
i wish i could tell you face to face
instead of singing this stupid song
but yeah i just think that we might get on

so i went to that party and everyone
they were kind of arty
and i was wearing this dress
because i wanted to impress
but i wasn't sure if i looked my best
'cause i was so nervous
but i carried on regardless
strutting through each room trying to find you

and when i saw you kissing that girl
my heart it shattered
and my eyes, they watered
and when i tried to speak i stuttered
and my friends were like whatever
you'll find someone better
his eyes were way too close together
and we never even liked him from the start
and now he's with that tart
and i heard she done some really nasty stuff
down in the park with michael
they said she's easy
and if your guy's with someone that's sleazy
then he ain't worth your time cause you deserve a real nice guy

so i proceeded to get drunk and to cry
and i locked myself in the toilets the entire night

saturday night i watched channel five
i particularly liked CSI
i don't ever dream about you and me
i don't ever make up stuff about you and me that would be considered insanity
i don't ever drive by your house to see if you're in
i don't even have an opinion on that tramp that you're still seeing
i don't know your timetable
i don't know your face off by heart
but i must admit that there's a part that still thinks
that we might get on
we might get on
