Belle & Sebastian - She's Losing It Lyrics

Lisa knows a girl who's been abused
It changed her philosophy in '82
She's always looking for a fight
She keeps the neighbors 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

But in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
When the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
Oh yeah, she's losing it

Lisa met Chelsea at the knocking school
Chelsea didn't feel like following the rules
They left the place for another school
Where the boys go with boys and the girls with girls

Chelsea was the one 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?"

But in the first moment of her waking up
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
And when the first cup of coffee tastes like washing up
She knows she's losing it, oh 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
She doesn't speak to anyone till four o' clock
She knows she's losing it, oh yeah, she's losing it
Oh yeah, she's losing it
