When I broke your heart and had no regrets
One more kiss ‘fore I smoke myself blind
As you suffer the dawn of my being reborn
Not your Christian, God-loving kind
Any chance of remorse faded out in the night
As you write in someone else’s tongue
Falling for the man-made words but for the right reasons
The battle already won

It don’t seem right. It’s not good behaviour
But you can thank me now, or you can thank me later

She was sketching the sky with a glint in her eye
Said that I was more man than I was
She invited me over, a pale-bodied poser
Believing the hype just because
I was focused enough and I got my reward
As my gaze became fixed on your skin
Too much dignity, not enough light
Plus I didn’t know where to begin

And it don’t seem right. It’s not good behaviour
But you can thank me now, or you can thank me later

Another sad tale, another set back
Thought that I fell in love from afar
I saw the opposite moves in an innocent groove
And a smile I took home in my car
Cheek to cheek as they say, only lasted a day
The canvas too easy to scratch
Said enough to ease the blow, take away your glow
Then jumped ship into true love like that

It don’t seem right. It’s not good behaviour
But you can thank me now, or you can thank me later

Here’s to all those mistakes that came good in the end
How we suffer to manage sometimes
Many tears to regret, many moons to forget
Though they hardly equate to real crimes
I’m a loser at heart, complicated to boot
Not the sink but the whole fucking kitchen
So what if we lose it or sing out of tune
At this time I’m sure no-one is listening

It don’t seem right. It’s not good behaviour
But you can thank me now, or you can thank me later
