Dodgy Bell

Intro — spoken

Found something by the sofa

You want me to bring it

Thought you might say that

Verse 1

Ten forty-three got your name on my screen

Made it to work

Physically

You send three dots then a picture of tea

I send your earring laid next to my keys

You say keep safe that's my favourite pair

I say come get it

You say when where

Same little flat same dodgy bell

Press it twice you know that well

Shirt on the chair still holding your scent

Went for some air came back again

Opened our chat just to check what you said

Read it once more while I'm making the bed

I type last night

Then clear that out

You send you always this quiet now

I call instead

You let it ring

Pick up laughing

Say your thing

Hook

You left your other earring

I left a light on

Said you'd only swing by

Now your coat's off

Got somewhere to be

You say later

Pull me by the sleeve

Make me wait there

Your other earring

Here in my palm

You could take it and leave

But you put music on

Verse 2

Half past eight you arrive with a bag

Said you can't cook so I thought I'd handle that

Bit disrespectful I let that slide

You kiss my cheek while you step inside

Hair tied back sleeves rolled twice

You hand me an onion I start with the knife

Smaller than that

You watch unimpressed

I say you came here to give me a test

You say you told me you had hidden talents

I say this kitchen affects my balance

Hip against mine while you reach for a plate

I lose my place in the point I was making

Sauce on your finger you ask me to taste

I lean too close get a hand to my face

Food first

Cool

I can behave

You look back once

Make that claim brave

Hook

You left your other earring

I left a light on

Said you'd only swing by

Now your coat's off

Got somewhere to be

You say later

Pull me by the sleeve

Make me wait there

Your other earring

Here in my palm

You could take it and leave

But you put music on

Bridge

Let me put it in

Turn your head

Your hair catches

You say gentle

I ease it loose

Find the clasp

You stay facing away

For a second after that

Then

What

Nothing

Come here then

Final Hook

Found your other earring

You found my old shirt

Standing in the doorway

Asking if it works

Yeah it works

Yeah keep that

You reach for your bag

Then you lean right back

Your other earring

Both on this time

You say no excuse now

I say come Friday

Outro — spoken

Friday's good

Just like that

Don't make it weird
