She's Losing It

Belle & Sebastian

Lisa knows a girl who's been abused

It changed her philosophy in '82

She's always looking for a fight

She keeps the neighbours up all night

I go to her when I'm feeling slack

The girl's using me as a punching bag

I think that I could help her out

But the girl's got a lot to be mad about

And in the first moment of her waking up

She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it

When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up

She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing

Yeah she's losing it

Lisa met Chelsea at the knocking school

Chelsea didn't feel like following the rules

So they left the place for another school

Where the boys go with boys and the girls with girls

Chelsea was the girl who's been abused

It changed her philosophy in '82

She says, Inch for inch and pound for pound

Who needs boys when there's Lisa round?

And in the first moment of her waking up

She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it

When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up

She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it

She goes to the mirror to put on her stuff

She knows she's losing it, oh yeah she's losing it

When she doesn't speak to anyone till four 0' clock

She knows she's losing it, yeah she's losing it

Oh yeah she's losing it
