Marina And The Diamonds - Obsessions lyrics

rate me

Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette.

Last night’s love affair is looking vulnerable in my bed

Silk sheet, 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 in (?)

Cheeks are on fire; just choose something, something, 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

Makes you weak, makes you weak, make you weak, make you weak, make you weak

Make you…

Sunday, wake up, give me a cigarette

Last night’s love affair is looking vulnerable again
