Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette
Last night's love affair is looking vulnerable in my bed
Silk sheet, blue dawn, Colgate, tongue warm
Won't you quit your crying?
I can't sleep
One minute I'm a little sweetheart
And next minute you are an absolute creep
We've got obsessions
I want to wipe out all the sad ideas
That come to me when I am holding you
We've got obsessions
All you ever think about are sick ideas
Involving me, involving you
Supermarket
Oh, what packet of crackers to pick?
They're all the same, one brand, one name
But really they're not
Look, look, just choose something quick
People are staring
Time to come quick thinking
Cheeks are on fire
Just choose something, something, something
Pressure overwhelming
Next minute I am turning out of the door
Facing one week without food
A day, a day when things, things are pretty bad
Don't let it make you feel sad
The crackers were, probably
Bad luck anyway
Can't let your cold heart be free
When you act like you've got an ocd
We've got obsessions
I want to erase every nasty thought
That bugs me every day of every week
We've got obsessions
You never told me what it is that makes you strong
And what it is that makes you weak
We've got obsessions
I want to erase every nasty thought
That bugs me every day of every week
We've got obsessions
You never told me what it was that made you strong
And what it was that made you weak
We've got obsessions
Made you, made you weak
Made you weak
We've got obsessions
Made you weak
Made you weak
Made you
Suday, wake up, give me a cigarette
Last night's love affair is looking vulnerable again
