Lyrics Obsessions - MARINA

Obsessions

Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette.
Last night’s love affair
Is looking vulnerable in my bed,
Silk sheets, 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, 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,
Cheeks are on fire, just choose something,
Pressure overwhelming,
Next minute I am turning out of the door,
Facing one week without food,
A day, a day when 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 tell 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
Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette.
Last night’s love affair is looking
Vulnerable again
