lyrics

The Badger

Start the day with a fragile friend
hey don't you know what shade's for
keep him lean when he's on the mend
and never let him see the door
afford me nothing and away again
you've stolen what we've aimed for
the grass is greener, though let's not pretend
the mood aint what you came for

ah ah.........
hey!
ah ah........
hey!

fetch a ride in your battered Benz
hey don't you know it's paid for
a filthy habit and a long weekend
it's all that we were made for
afford me nothing and away again
you've stolen what we'd aimed for
the grass was greener, though let's not pretend
the mood aint what you came for

ah ah...........
hey!
ah ah.........
hey!
ah ah........
hey!

we never knew what he was on about
he just kept to himself
we never knew what he was on about
he just kept to himself

ah ah........
hey!
