Please Don't Touch

please don't touch

polly scattergood

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

Coz 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

Hate to pry now it's 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

Coz 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

If you feel me please don't brake me

Please don't let that rat man take me

Cou 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

Coz 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
