Polly Scattergood - Please don't touch

Can't play pretty tunes
My hair is always messy
And I can't walk in a straight line
My path is always always gritty

And I like to play piano
But it's often out of tune
And there are lots of broken fingers
In the dark parts of my room

Please don't touch
Please don't stop and stare
Yes I thank you for your kindness
But there's sadness in the air
Please don't touch
‘Cause it makes me jitter
And although I lost my mind sir
I think you lost yours quicker
Please don't touch

Love me tender, love me true
Show your colours black and blue
Make another cupper on the sofa eating marmalade
And I hate to pry now its forgotten
Feeling strange and looking rotten
Fighting like a soldier over skinny jeans and pick'n' mix

Please don't touch
Please don't stop and stare
Yes I thank you for your kindness
But there's sadness in the air
Please don't touch
‘Cause it makes me jitter
And although I lost my mind sir
I think you lost yours quicker
Please don't touch

Fickle like a fruit machine
Playing with the cruise ship queen
Taking all his apples
And then going to play hide and seek
And unless you feel me please don't break me
Please don't let that rat man take me
‘Cause he thinks I'm weird
Well what's a girl to do

Please don't touch
Please don't stop and stare
Yes I thank you for your kindness
But there's sadness in the air
Please don't touch
‘Cause it makes me jitter and
Although I lost my mind sir
I think you lost yours quicker
Please don't touch

Don't stop
Stop and stare
Yes I thank you for your kindness
But there's sadness in the air
Please don't touch
