Fozz - Damaged Goods Lyrics

I was seventeen miles from home when her name flashed on my phone
And I would normally screen her out but I was feeling sentimental
Against my better judgement and sense and a lowered state of defence
I assumed that she would be ok, but she was still bloody mental

And after skilfully dodging the flak and 20 minutes that I'm never getting back
I took the turn off for Milton Keynes convinced I was over-reacting
Checking out Asda deals for beer and all the crowds flocking out of Ikea
I realised I probably shouldn't be here but danger's sometimes attractive
Oh my god she was looking old. Jesus Christ she was still as cold
A smile tried to break through on her face
But she was the same old damaged goods

She talked to me from her kitchen sink, and made tea so weak that I couldn't drink
She showed me pictures of her kids and we joked about her cooking
Convincing herself she was on a buzz, about changing her Mrs into a Ms
And she'd met someone just like me, but I was much better looking
On my life I knew there and then, it wasn't a matter of if; it was a matter of when
A smile tried to break through on my face
But she was the same old damaged goods

Now it's a matter of public fact, I escaped with my sanity intact
Which is more than I can say for her when she put her cards on the table
An hour further down the road before she had time to really explode
I was back at home lying on the couch and feeling quite unstable
I swore it was time I got into shape, next time there might be no escape
I lay with a smile upon my face
She was the same old damaged goods
