Pot Kettle Black

I thought it was "You can fake that smile for a hell of a while"

Kinda reminds me of talking shit behind I guess a friend or someone's back. I think that makes the most sense to be, especially with the "pot kettle, pot kettle black, talk that, talk that smack"

I bet you think we didn’t know Didn’t even see the tides change But it’s a small, small world, girl Getting even smaller every day

I bet you think we didn’t know Didn’t even see the tides change But it’s a small, small world, girl Getting even smaller every day

You can fake that smile For a hollow while But the kids all learn Once those bridges burn

Ssssssssssssss

The trash washes up to shore Even in this landlocked place The shit gets thicker It’s toxic Get it out my face

The trash washes up to shore Even in this landlocked place The shit gets thicker It’s toxic Get it out my face And don’t be surprised If they don’t buy your lies Some of us can see through Your stained glass eyes

Pot kettle, pot kettle black Talk that, talk that smack Pot kettle, pot kettle black Watch your, watch your back

Pot kettle, pot kettle black Talk that, talk that smack Pot kettle, pot kettle black Watch your, watch your back

Oh my god Did you hear (yeah) About that bitch And what she did? I don’t believe it Aw, aw What a ho What a tramp What a slut

(pause)

Pot kettle, pot kettle black Talk that, talk that smack Pot kettle, pot kettle black Watch your, watch your back

Pot kettle, pot kettle black Talk that, talk that smack Pot kettle, pot kettle black Watch your, watch your back

You can fake that smile for a Hug (?) or a while

i've always thought it was for a hell of awhile. not sure though.

Love this song. A bit more of a rockier - if you will - Tilly, but it's great!

holy poo this is the only song i've heard off the new album so far (still waiting for mine in the mail) and i LOVE it. it's SO different from anything they've ever done before, no more lo-fi twee pop tilly. but i think it's the sexiest song they've ever written.

I think it's actually "You can fake a smile for a hallow while". That's what I hear anyway

I didn't like this song at first, but now it's on repeat! :D

this song reminds me of.. cheerleading(?). and i don't even know why. amazing song though.

the second time around i'm pretty sure she says "the church washes up to shore" which would connect more with 'stained-glass eyes' ref

and would in general reinforce their lyrical dealings with religion / gender "God put down your gun" etc...
