We Get On - Kate Nash

Simply knowing you exist

Ain’t good enough for me

But asking for your telephone number

Seems highly inappropriate

Seeing as I can’t even say hi when you walk by

And that time you shook my hand

It felt so nice

I swear I’ve never felt

This way about any other guy

And I don’t usually

Notice people’s eyes, but

I conducted a plan

To bump into you most accidentally

But I was walking along

And I bumped into you much more heavily

Than 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 get on

Oh 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

Everyone, they were kind of arty

And I was wearing this dress

Cause 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, he said she’s easy

And if your guy’s with someone that sleazy

Then he ain’t worth your time

Cause you deserve a real nice guy»

So I proceeded to get drunk and cry

And lock myself in the toilet for the entire night

Saturday night I watched channel five

I particularly like CSI

I don’t ever dream

About you and me

I don’t ever make up stuff about us

That would be classed as 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 is still a part Of me

That thinks we might get on

That we could get on

That we should get on
