Fuck You, Jackie

[Verse 1]
So scared when I close my eyes
Of what I'll see when I open them
But it's not a monster anymore
It's the worried face of a friend
Wanna find my younger self
Wring his little fucking neck
For thinking it would impress Jackie
If I dragged on her cigarette
And I guess that it did
'Cause when we kissed
Her lips tasted just like it

[Chorus]
Walk in time with the rushing waitress
Just so I can walk with someone
This pier's too pretty to be alone on
And back home on the landlocked bed
Between good loving and common sense
I realised I can definitely keep living like this
I just need to quit

[Verse 2]
The stale warmth of her mouth
Was dulled by far too many afternoons like this
Spent posing 'round the car park
Half-alive, half-scared shitless
The concerned consumers waddled on
Into the dull, fluorescent throng
I looked down and realised
I still had my school uniform on
And the older kids had said
They'd have done it if she dared
And I knew from that moment on
That part of me would always be impressing someone
Or hopelessly scared

[Chorus]
So I walk with the rushing waitress
Just so I can walk with someone
This pier's too pretty to be alone on
And back home on the landlocked bed
Between good loving and common sense
I realised I can definitely keep living like this
I've just gotta get my shit together
I've just gotta get my shit together
I've just gotta get my shit together
I've just gotta get my shit together
