As I made my way to school
On the 36A bus to Cumbernauld Town Centre
I'd look out the window and see it there
Clinging to the limb of a tree
Looking so lonely
An empty packet of Discos that had been thrown aside
And caught there somehow
Every day, I'd pass this little bag hanging there
And come what may, it was my only stability
I fell in love with an abandoned crisp packet
I fell in love with a discarded crisp packet
I fell in love with the way it would always be there
I fell in love with
No change in weather could destroy it
I watched it slowly age like i saw myself in the mirror
Its colours would fade in time
It would always be mine
Because nobody noticed it
It was there for so long, the design became retro and then back in fashion
It had to stay strong for me
But then one day, a truck drove past
Those HGVs, they go so fast
Look out!
Its tyres spun out a deadly mud spray
And took my crisp packet away
I fell in love with an abandoned crisp packet
I fell in love with a discarded crisp packet
I fell in love with the way it would always be there
I fell in love with
I fell in love with
I fell in love with
I fell in love
