Charlotte Adigéry, Bolis Pupul - It Hit Me(2022)

First time I heard this
Everything changed
I was waiting for the bus
Field hockey practice, 13 years old
A couple of men stared at me from across the street
Eyes on my legs
I didn't understand
Did my skirt get caught in my underpants?
So I scanned my uniform
In the same order they did
From my Nike football shoes
My knee-high blue socks to my
Pleated navy mini skirt
But I just didn't see it
Looking for a clue I awkwardly looked back at them
They looked hungry and proud
A combination I just didn't comprehend
Until suddenly

It hit me
Hit me
Suddenly
It hit me
It hit me
Yeah
Suddenly
It hit me
Hit me

How 'bout you, Bolis?

It started with a love letter
I spent an hour in the shower
Examining myself
Looking for clues in the mirror
I tried to see myself through her eyes
So I combed my hair back
Put some wax in it
I opened my dad's cupboard
Drawn to the scent of a bottle
Acqua Di Gio, Acqua Di Gio
It hit me

Hit me
Suddenly
It hit me
It hit me
Yup
Suddenly
It hit me

How to flirt with food in four steps
Read my favourite teenager magazine
I found my first guinea pig soon after
The pig was called Stéphane
Step one
Grab food with tip of fingers
Step two
Pout your lips and open your mouth
Step three
Take a bite and lick your fingers
Step four
Look boy straight in the eyes
That's where it went wrong
I couldn't locate my mouth anymore
The nacho fell straight into my empty bra
Stefaan ended up with Nadia

It hit me
It hit me
It hit me
It hit me
It hit me
It hit me
