Size Matters - Natasha Bedingfield

This is for the lions living in the wiry broke down frames Of my friends' bodies When the flood water comes, it ain't gonna be clear It's gonna look like mud But I will help you swim, I will help you swim I'm gonna help you swim This is for the snakes and the people they bite For the friends I've made, for the sleepless nights For the warning signs I've completely ignored There's an amount to take, reasons to take more It's no big surprise you turned out this way When they close their eyes and prayed you would change And they cut your hair, and sent you away You stopped by my house the night you escaped With tears in my eyes, I begged you to stay You said, "Hey man, I love you, but no fucking way!" I'm sure that we could find something for you to do on stage Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing, you sing harmonies This is for the lake that me and my friends swim in Naked and dumb on a drunken night But it should've felt good, but I can hear the Jaws theme song On repeat in the back of my mind Make sure you kiss your knuckles before you punch me in the face There are lessons to be learned Consequences for all the stupid things I say And it is no big surprise you turned out this way The spark in your eyes, the look on your face I will not... I'm sure that we could find something for you to do on stage (be late) Maybe shake a tambourine or when I sing, you sing harmonies I wanna contribute to the chaos I don't wanna watch and then complain 'Cause I am through finding blame That is the decision that I have made She hopes I'm cursed forever To sleep on a twin-sized mattress In somebody's attic or basement my whole life Never graduating up in size to add another And my nightmares will have nightmares every night Oh, every night, every night

I have my sentence now At last, I know just how you felt I dig my fingers in, expecting more then just the skin 'Cause we're a lot alike In favor, like a motorbike A sailor and a nightingale Slow dancing in convertibles And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters We've got the highway tight The moon is bursting with headlights One more and we're away Love tender in your Chevrolet And we're a lot alike In favor, like a motorbike A sailor and a nightingale Dancing in convertibles And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters Even when the cold comes crashing through I'm putting all my bets on you I hope they never understand us I put my heart inside your palms My home in your arms Now we know nothing matters Nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters And you can hold me, like he held her And I will fuck you like nothing matters, ooh

Baby, tell me where'd you ever learn To fight without saying a word Then waltz back into my life Like it's all gonna be alright Don't you know how much it hurts When we don't talk When we don't touch When it doesn't feel like we're even in love It matters to me When I don't know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see It matters to me Baby, I still don't understand The distance between a woman and a man So tell me how far it is And how you can love like this 'Cause I'm not sure I can When we don't talk When we don't touch When it doesn't feel like we're even in love It matters to me When I dont know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see It matters to me Oh, and I don't know what to say Don't know what to do Don't know if it really even matters to you How can I make you see It matters to me Oh, it matters to me

Yeah, yeah Yeah Straight forward with the fashion (woo) On the real, you ain't think I make it happen It happens Until they see the numbers on the dash And the wood grain everywhere like a casket (dead) All these haters and these hoes to me You supposed to speak now 'Cause when you marinate the game in the sauce as long as I did I'm supposed to eat now Who shows receipts now? Cards on the table 'fore they asked for it Only crash dummies need a crash course Put your ID away, they need your passport Oh, you ain't know? I show you how it goes They tryna block my shine like a powdered nose in the bathroom I'm outta holes, this scatter blow That's a whole lotta drip That's a whole lotta tired of the same old shit I'm back one more 'gain, though Count it up, count it up, with my kinfolk Partition my vision in the limo That's a long way from givin' niggas demos That's a long way from keepin' up, keepin' up Nah, I ain't sentimental Family matters more to me than the Winslow Dark night, no joke, I'm just hangin' out the window If I come up, you come up If I ball out, we ball out If I'm poppin', you poppin', I got it, you got it The only thing I'm talkin' 'bout If I roll up, you roll up If I show up, you show up If I spend it, you spend it, I'm winnin', we winnin' The only thing that matters now is family Power forward with the slashin' (Boom) When the ball's in your court, all the planet is a basket Swish goes the net when I splash it Open lane and they thought I should've passed it (gone) Zero to sixty, might just miss me At the spot that you pay to come and see They paid me to come and sit for free So you could watch how we ball out every week Sparklers remind me of the fourth Want my independence just to start a biddin' war Cellphones rang out like some gunshots Bang out in a Caddy with that iron, I'm just stayin' on course (swagger) I'm a master, no Jagger (master, no Jagger) I got green like a pasture "You get a plate, you get a plate, you get a plate" I'm like the ones from the pastor Givin' gold so they'll never know They say I can't take it with me so I give more I guess that's why I'm 300 songs, 10 albums in And I still got the glow Bruce Leeroy, Sho'Nuff Who needs a hero when they got us? Multi 'til the sun die, a real The only movie that you could've seen without a script If I come up, you come up If I ball out, we ball out If I'm poppin', you poppin', I got it, you got it The only thing I'm talkin' 'bout If I roll up, you roll up If I show up, you show up If I spend it, you spend it, I'm winnin', we winnin' The only thing that matters now is family Boom You win
