Billy Bragg - Sulk lyrics

Here's the lyrics to "Sulk" (only available on the ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN

promo CD). The words are pretty bitter, but the melody is joyous. It's a

great track and the Red Stars band sounds great on it.

SULK

by Billy Bragg and Cara Tivey

[Reprinted without permission.]

If you hate me, why don't you go?

And if you love me, why don't you let me know?

But you just won't give me an inch, so

You just sulk

Why do I want to hide whenever you show up?

You know your moods just make me want to throw up

Why don't you just bloody well grow up?

You just sulk

All of the time

Why don't you pick me up or throw me a line?

All over the place

Why don't you tell me what you think?

Come on and tell me to my face

If you love me, why don't you show it?

If you hate me, why don't you let me know it?

Why don't you just pick up something and throw it?

You just sulk

If you want to bend my arm,

Well, you could do it with a little more charm

But you just couldn't bear to do me any harm

So you just sulk

When you tell me that you want to quit

And then you treat me like a piece of shit

And when I ask you what's that got to do with it

You just sulk
