There?s such a lot of good ways to be bad

 And so many bad ways to be good haven?t paid my rent yet

I tell them sorry but I haven?t got the money anymore

Just for today I thought I?d leave home alone, hold hands with day

 And if I?m so bad, why don?t they take me away?

Just like what you hear with a shell pressed to your ear

 That?s the sea in the trees in the morning hello the universal

Good morning Steve, well you won?t believe me today

Working doesn?t seem to be the perfect thing for me so I?ll continue to play

 And if I?m so bad why don?t they take me away?

Well a hippy trippy name dropper came through my door

 He said ?I just bumped into Mick he told me you know where to score??

 No not me friend, I mind my own and my own minds me

Well my love is at the foot of your hand come what may

 But if June comes first please won?t you take me away?
