[Verse 1] Small hands, cracked knuckles Thumb on a chipped white cup You burned the toast again this morning Ate it anyway, didn't stop Tiny frame, heavy mornings Doing math on four hours' sleep Left the house with odd socks on Nobody noticed but me [Pre-Chorus] Doctor said take it easy You took the stairs instead Called me at noon out of breath Laughing at something you said [Chorus] Little but fierce Little but fierce You forget your coat And you're fine at ten degrees Little but fierce Bit your tongue Kept walking Didn't even taste the blood Little but fierce Little but fierce [Verse 2] Seen you carry ten bad days In a coat with a loose sleeve Seen you laugh with a split lip Told the nurse you fell on the stairs, not me You don't raise your voice You just stop answering the phone Then you show up at my door at midnight Like nothing at all was wrong [Pre-Chorus] Doctor said take it easy You took the stairs instead Called me at noon out of breath Laughing at something you said [Chorus] Little but fierce Little but fierce You forget your coat And you're fine at ten degrees Little but fierce Bit your tongue Kept walking Didn't even taste the blood Little but fierce Little but fierce [Bridge] The landlord came at six a.m. You answered in your socks Told him where he could put the notice Then went back to bed like nothing was lost [Final Chorus] Little but fierce Little but fierce You forget your coat And you're fine at ten degrees Little but fierce Bit your tongue Kept walking Didn't even taste the blood Little but fierce Little but fierce
