lyrics

You saw the sink stacked high with plates

My phone face-down by the kettle by eight

You kicked my boot back from the door

Said, “You been flat for a week or more”

You passed me a spoon and a chipped blue mug

Pulled my sleeve when I froze in the rug

No big speech, just a look that fit

Like you knew my name before I said it

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

You clocked me first

You clocked me first

At the Footscray stop, in the rain at nine

You shoved me your jumper on the tram line

I laughed too hard at a broken shoe

You said, “I know that face on you”

You left a note on the fridge with milk

Two words scratched out in your heavy felt

No rescue song, no perfect plan

Just your hand on mine when the floor got bad

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

You clocked me first

You clocked me first

Back porch screen, Jarrah bark in the yard

You sat by the rusted bin, not hard

I split my lip on a cheap tin lid

You said, “Mate, I saw it before you did”

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

Kept my coat

You clocked me first

You clocked me first
