Whoops-Kate Tempest

[00:02.14]Well, who's this? [00:04.19]Staggerin' home, jabberin' [00:05.80]Lookin' like some street smart arrogant gnome [00:09.48]Feet stickin' to the kerb like javelins, thrown [00:11.97]Gesturing wildly, having full blown conversations with himself [00:16.11]Saying, "Haven't you grown?" to his face in the windows, grimacing [00:19.45]Grappling with half a cigarette, not managin' [00:22.12]This is Pete [00:23.93]Pete grew up on this street [00:25.38]He moved away, but he's back livin' at his dad's so he can save [00:27.80]He rigs stages at live events, but every time he gets payed [00:30.46]He gets wasted and wakes up with less than he made [00:33.57]Then he hates it, but that's life, right? [00:35.52]Fast paced, **** faced, low maintenance [00:37.60]And all of his mates are kind of on the same page [00:39.91]It's basic wages takes ages to get through the month [00:42.20]But then payday comes and it's drink all 'round [00:44.19]Outrageous behaviour, livin' right now, no sense a' later [00:47.38]Pills by the pocketful, nights last days, and look [00:50.79]Even if he never splashed out, he still couldn't make the rent on his own place [00:54.74]Face it [00:55.49]It's 04:18 [00:58.23]Pete's 14 doors from home and his thoughts are like a pack of starving dogs [01:03.37]Fighting over the last bone [01:13.76]No, no, no, no, no, no, yeah! [01:15.55]No, anyway, what was I sayin'? [01:17.03]**** it, wait, hold on, I'm comin' up, wait [01:18.73]Good night, weren't it? Must've been [01:20.87]Burnt too much on the good stuff, lucky me [01:22.92]I looked up, I saw my future unravel in the lights [01:25.05]Funny, innit? I love that sinking feeling, any minute [01:27.29]But you can't win the race unless you're runnin' in it, right? [01:29.25]Or you can't get a taste unless you're takin' a bite [01:31.40]Man, I'm climbin' up the walls, things are gettin' difficult [01:33.62]It's all take, take, take, and start early, work late [01:35.76]Puttin' in the hours for these drugs, tokens [01:38.20]Love's a joke when your blood's pulsin' [01:39.73]Love is real when you start chokin' [01:41.26]I'm double jumpin' in the vast ocean [01:42.73]State of me, mate, blatantly the way I was made, y'see? [01:45.72]I've been gettin' on it since back in the day [01:48.02]Good place for a bad time, if you ask me [01:50.19]Trust me, nothin' gets past me [01:52.02]A bad place for a good time, if you know what I mean [01:54.66]Never met no one like you, this feels like a dream [01:56.68]Whoops! Back here again [01:58.59]How many times 'ave I sworn it's the end? [02:00.60]Whoops! I know this feelin' [02:02.76]Shovelin' the rubbish, then I'm starin' at the ceilin' [02:04.89]Whoops! Dancin' to a **** tune [02:07.28]Hands in the air when it hits you [02:09.24]Whoops! I'm lyin' in my bed [02:11.28]And my brain is eating my head [02:13.90]I got these demons that I can't shake [02:15.35]My past is a vast place, you can't get away [02:17.31]Life got grim back then, like it does [02:19.27]Do you know how it feels to lose people you love? [02:21.27]I like talkin' to ya like this, do you wanna come back? [02:23.97]Couple drinks, somethin' like that [02:25.45]I got a gram on my nightstand [02:26.53]I got an eighth, a squidgy back [02:27.90]I got this feelin' that we're gonna be friends [02:29.30]I got this song, I wanna play it to you [02:30.74]I got this dream, I'm gonna make it happen [02:32.31]I got this thing, I wanna say it to you [02:33.76]See, I've been writin' poems, it's a thing that I do [02:36.12]And, would you mind if I shared one with you? [02:37.87]No, course not, right, sorry, this time a' night [02:40.40]I always end up spoutin' the same old trite [02:42.25]It reminds me of this time I was tryna find my mind [02:44.31]In the back of this rave, this kid was spillin' blood all over the place [02:47.24]And I was lookin' out for someone to save or be saved by [02:49.58]And I found this paper plate, started writin' [02:51.29]It felt ******' great [02:52.94]I knew then, me an' the pen, we were one and the same [02:54.53]But, look, I can't take this train of the days [02:56.58]I'm pretty sure I'm halfway to insane [02:57.83]You got such a nice face, and your eyes are like rain [02:59.97]I'd try and kiss you if I could just remember your name [03:04.20]Whoops! Back here then s'ppose [03:05.44]Don't watch the state of my nose [03:07.84]Whoops! My door's gone west [03:09.63]And I've started gettin' pains in my chest (Is that normal?) [03:12.11]Whoops! There goes my promise [03:13.83]All it took was two drinks, and I got on it [03:15.83]Whoops! I swear this person isn't me [03:17.75]We did have fun, though, didn't we? [03:19.80]Didn't we? Yeah
