作曲 : Paul Heaton & Dave Rotheray | |
作词 : Heaton, Rotheray | |
When you called me a useless druggie | |
At least you got half of it right | |
When you called me a hopeless alcoholic | |
I'm only hopeless after nine at night | |
And when I said you came staggering home blind drunk | |
If I didn't you'd get terrible fright | |
And if this is the land of hope and glory | |
Where's the land of hope but not quite | |
I've been scruff bag, dirt bag, always someones binbag | |
But never been bono or sting | |
However I dressed never really impressed | |
So they never got to hear a damn thing | |
I've been bad man sad man certified mad | |
But never 007 or saint | |
Trendsetter go getter international jet setter | |
Are just a few things that I ain't | |
The time you told class I was a half wit | |
Was my very first 50 % | |
Previous best in any other test | |
Was either stolen copied or lent | |
And when you branded me and every single one of my mates | |
A waste of time and effort to teach | |
Why d'you give us sums if our only hope was bums | |
On someone else's deckchair and beach | |
I've been smart arse, mardy arse, on and off a lard arse | |
But never been a legend to god | |
New thing dumb thing even last year's thing | |
Headbang? - not even a nod! | |
I've been left-wing, secure-wing, lost stripes, gained winged | |
We've never caused a lady to faint | |
Wideboy, ladyboy, read it in the paper boy | |
A few things they said that I ain't | |
When popularity soared, hometown and abroad | |
I spent most of it trying to breathe in | |
Always ill at ease, too willing to please | |
An inferior life's bargain bin | |
When you come from a background of bargain bins | |
You're bound to fear it ends where it begins | |
So when nation adored we felt more of a fraud | |
And too phoney to celebrate wins | |
I've been scruffbag, dirtbag, always someones binbag | |
But never been Bono or Sting | |
However I dressed never really impressed | |
So they never got to hear a damn thing | |
I've been badman, sadman, certified mad | |
But never 007 or Saint | |
Trend-setter, go-getter, international jet-setter | |
Are just a few things that I ain't |
