lyrics

(the drawer)

It's folded in the drawer beneath the takeaway menus
Thirty days of notice and a reason, neatly typed
I have moved house twice since August and it moved with me
Which tells you what it is and what it isn't

The drawer (the drawer)
Still in the drawer, the drawer
I never handed it over, the drawer
The drawer

The drawer, the drawer, the drawer, the drawer
A woman who drafts a leaving letter isn't leaving
The drawer, the drawer, the drawer, the drawer
She's asking to be argued with, in writing

I read contracts for a living and I missed the obvious one.
A document you never serve is not a notice.
It's a hope with a date on it. I've had it since August.
(bass returns)

The drawer, the drawer, the drawer, the drawer
A woman who drafts a leaving letter isn't leaving
The drawer, the drawer, the drawer, the drawer
She's asking to be argued with, in writing

(the drawer...)
