tim minchin - you grew on me lyrics
you grew on me like a tumour
and you spread through me like malignant melanoma
and now you’re in my heart
i should’ve cut you out back at the start
now i’m afraid there’s no cure for me
no dose of emotional chemotherapy
can halt my pathetic decline
i should’ve had you removed back when you were benign
i picked you up like a virus
like meningo-f-cking-coccal meningitis
now i can’t feel my legs
when you’re around i can’t get out of bed
i’ve left it too late to risk an operation
i know there’s no hope for a clean amputation
the successful removal of you
would probably kill me too
you grew on me like carcinoma
crept up on me like untreated glaucoma
now i find it hard to see
this untreated dose of you has blinded me
i should’ve consulted my local physician
i’m stuck now forever with this tunnel vision
my periphery is screwed
wherever i look now, all i see is you
when we first met you seemed fickle and shallow
but my armour was no match for your poison arrow
you are wedged inside my chest
if i tried to take you out now i might bleed to death
i’m feeling short of breath
you grew on me like a tumour
and you spread through me like malignant melanoma
i guess i never knew
how fast a little mole can grow on you
