Lyrics One Day, After School - Arab Strap

One Day, After School

I said with me around she’d never come to harm
And then she took a fork and stabbed herself in the arm
She used to wank me off but I could never heat her up
And she use to tell all her friends that I beat her up
I went round to her house one day after, after school
She’d bought me this steel ladybird thing, it was really cool
And then she said she thought there was no future for us
She chucked me then, chucked me out, and I cried all over the bus
And that sunday was my first experience of feeling alone
When she wouldn’t answer her door and she wouldn’t answer her phone
So I went round and banged on the door, I thought I had so much to say
And then the pigs came and told me to be on my way
It’d be nice to say then that that’s where the story ends
But she came way with some pish about still being friends
And she seemed sincere so I thought I’d give her a chance
And it was okay until I found her with her hand down someone elses pants
I pulled them apart, it was all I could think to do
Then another guy she knew flew to her rescue
He tried to kick my head in to impress her, cause he was trying to poke her
I came home greeting and bleeding
And my mum threatened to go round to her house and choke her
