Break my neck – try really hard Tip of my tongue – about to be said or almost remembered Fingers crossed – good luck Have your foot on the first rung of the ladder – completed the starting point You got a bad face cheek – you are silly Skeletons in the cupboard – embarrassing secret about something that happened in the past We want to know where the bodies are hidden – we want to know where are the secrets Bury head in the sand – To avoid a particular situation by pretending that it does not exist Chip on shoulder – be angry all the time because you think you have been treated unfairly Pulling over out – to be very worried Pull somebody’s leg – you are lying to me – shut up Have your feet on the ground – realistic person Head in the clouds – not dealing with reality I am all ears – you have my full attention Head and shoulders above the rest – so much better that others It makes my skin crawl – it scares me
