Ainslie Henderson - Coming Up for Air lyrics

rate me

Well, you know some days when you wake up

And you've got like a minor hangover from the night before

Having sat it on a Friday night

And watched the worlds smarmiest charmer brands you a weirdo on national television

But er you know

You wake up and look outside the window

It's a really sunny day

And it's been snowing the night before so it's like this bright white light just like reflecting off everything

You look out over the pond, watch the ducks, the geese and that

Make yourself a cup of coffee, have a cigarette

You can just like lie on the sofa ahh

And you just think, you know things are gonna be alright,

Things are gonna be ok

I don't know why but er

It just feels ok

You wonder what you're gonna do for the rest of the day

Maybe write some songs,

Just hang about, go for a walk

I'm gonna make myself a sandwich in a minute

Fancy some cheese,

I fucking love cheese - it's great.

I might even..I realise it's a bit um it's a bit naughty but I'm gonna have a glass of wine with my lunch

Cos I'm in such a good mood, grand!

Coming up for air

I got oxygen everywhere

I don't know how the world works

And I don't care, I don't care (x4)

I kissed my cousin once

His names Stewart

We were about twelve years old,

And er, we had two younger cousins who were ten at the time

And they'd never heard of french kissing

And we were trying to explain it to them

And er, to this day I'm not sure whether I dreamt it

Or whether it actually happened

But I'm s..I think Stewart and I kissed each other

in order to show these girls how to french kiss

And er, everytime I see him now

I wonder if he's thinking the same thing

If he's remembering

And I can flippin ask him

In case, in case it was a dream

And he thinks I'm coming onto him

Coming up for air

I got oxygen everywhere

I don't know how the world works

And I don't care, I don't care (x4)
