Please Don't Touch - Polly Scattergood

Can’t play pretty tunes

My head 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 its 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 cuppa, on the sofa eating marmalade

And i hate to brag, now its forgotten

Feeling strange and looking rotten

Fighting like a soldier over skinny jeans and pick and 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

Don’t stop and stare,

I thank you for your kindness

But there’s sadness in the air

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 the 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
