Kiss With A Fist (Bbc Proms At The Royal Albert Hall)

You hit me once, I hit you back
You gave a kick, I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

You hit me once, I hit you back
You gave a kick, I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed
Well

My black eye casts no shadow
Your red eye sees no blame
Your slaps don't stick, your kicks don't hit
So we remain the same
Love sticks, sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit

A kick to the teeth is good for some
A kiss with a fist is better than none
Whoa-oh
And a kiss with a fist is better than none

I broke your jaw once before
I spilled your blood upon the floor
You broke my leg in return
So let's sit back and watch the bed burn
Love sticks, sweat drips
Break the lock if it don't fit

A kick to the teeth is good for some
A kiss with a fist is better than none
Whoa-oh
And a kiss with a fist is better than none

You hit me once, I hit you back
You gave a kick, I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed
Well

You hit me once, I hit you back
You gave a kick, I gave a slap
You smashed a plate over my head
Then I set fire to our bed

Thank you, Federico and Nathan
Um, I want to, uh, thank The Proms for having me do this
And to celebrate the 15-year anniversary of 'Lungs'
Um, so many, so many of these songs were written when I was a teenager or in my very early 20s
And what's been so nice is we threw so many good songs off the album, and they became bonus tracks
So, and then I was like, "Wow, I love this song, wait, we didn't put it on the record?"
It was a really chaotic and messy time
And there's so many people in here tonight who contributed or were part of that time
And I'm so happy and grateful to see you all

Um, and there are so many, uh, songs that I haven't sung in a very long time
And it has been an absolute joy to put them together with you
And, you know, just like make some sense out of the mess
