Biography:
Hands Off Gretel was formed from the foundations of an early musical partnership between Lauren Tate and guitarist Sean McAvinue. Following a tumble down the stairs at rehearsal, Sean broke his hand and the then recently formed Lauren Tate Band quickly fell apart. Frustrated by having to wait till he got fixed, Lauren picked up the electric guitar for the first time and started to play. She wrote a bunch of new songs describing them as 'frustration songs' with a new rawness, expressive energy and honesty.

[Verse 1]
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
The doctor tells me I'm connected to the weather
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
That I'm just falling from the rain set on my dirty feathers
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
He calls me darling and he stitches me whenever
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
I fall to pieces as plasters hold me together
[Chorus]
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F#5 G5 G#5
He thinks I'm making up lies
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F#5 G5 G#5
He leaves me here to die
[Post-Chorus]
N.C.
Oh, why

Ohhh

Ohhh, die

[Verse 2]
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
The doctor tells me "show me where it's hurting"
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
He's looking deeper than my eyes were ever showing
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
He gives the reasons nothing's special about me
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
As he stripped me only plasters held me together
[Chorus]
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F#5 G5 G#5
He thinks I'm making up lies
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F5 G5 G#5
He leaves me here to die

That I'm just dying from the rain set on my dirty feathers
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
He gives me reasons nothing's special about me
C#5 G#5 E5 D#5
And as he stripped me, he'd see
[Chorus]
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F#5 G5 G#5
He thinks I'm making up lies
F#5 G5 G#5
The doctor thinks I'm fine
F5 G5 G#5
He leaves me here to die
[Outro]
F#5 G5 G#5
Doctor won't you think that I'm fine
F#5 G5 G#5
I'm here to tell you I am breaking this time
F#5 G5 G#5
Powdered bruises getting deeper with lies
F#5 G5 G#5
And the plasters are not working this time
