BELLE AND SEBASTIAN
"The Boy Done Wrong Again (Live)"

[Intro:]
I see you fired our, uh, ambassador
Fired his ass
Anyway, um
What were we doing? Songs
This is, uh, on a scale of naught to ten
It's like on the maudlin side
I hope that's okay
Is that, is it okay if we
If we bring a little bit of sadness to Friday night?
It's, it gets happier at the end, though, doesn't it, Stevie?
This song could actually be for our ambassador
Oh, great, let's
Let's make it for our ambassador
But was he wrong?
Let's find out
He was just telling the truth, man

The boy done wrong again
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
The boy done wrong again
Hang your head in shame and cry your life away
Are you okay now?

On Saturday I was an angel shining fair
You shone louder, longer
You put my shine to shame
Put me to shame now

[Pre-Chorus:]
What is it I must do to pay for all my crimes?
What is it I must do?
I would do it all the time
Do it all the time

[Chorus:]
All that I wanted was to sing the saddest song
And if you would sing along
I will be happier

[Instrumental]

[Bridge:]
The woodland spring has put the darkness from your thinking
If this town's your sinking ship
Then you know where to jump
Talking dirty, for a hobby that's all right
Pour another glass of wine
I'll think of England this time

[Chorus:]
All that I wanted was to sing the saddest song
And if you would sing along
And if you would sing along
I will be happier
