The Ting Tings › Lyrics › Keep Your Head

The room’s green, it’s got writing on the wall
It’s got one chair, it’s kinda small
Dirty shoes running past the door
And then you go round, beat yourself up

Ten minutes to go and I wanna go home
Ten minutes to go, yeah, I’ve got to go home
Ten minutes to go and the air, it don’t feel clear
Everybody disappear, you’re in it on your own

I'm fourteen, intimidated, and she’s just fourteen
She’s getting pulled from the opposite side
Until it breaks down
Blame it on the wrong crowd
Stay, more make up, hair dye

Ten minutes to go, you know she should have gone home
Ten minutes to go, yeah, you should have gone home
Ten minutes to go and the air, it don’t feel clear
Everybody disappear, you’re in it on your own

You can’t sleep, you know it’s over
But you just can’t sleep, you’ve gotta face it
Gotta go outside and do the day walk
Living with the lights off, ain’t nobody home?

Ten minutes to go, you know you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go, yeah, you wanna stay home
Ten minutes to go and the air, it don’t feel clear
Everybody disappear, you’re in it on your own

Keep your head, keep your head
Just keep your head, keep your head

(Keep your head)
You wanna keep quiet, keep it on the right side
If you know you're gonna be coming off
It’s gonna make you open your eyes
(Keep your head)
I said, now, open your eyes, you know it

(Keep your head)
You wanna keep quiet, keep it on the low side
Yes, you're gonna see, ten minutes to go
And you're keeping it, your head's up
(Keep your head)
Keep it low, be right, push it kinda low, so, open your eyes
