The Cribs - The Wrong Way To Be lyrics

Because a guy I used to know

Is returning now to show

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

I guess we were never going to be friends

I've never really liked people that are too right on

Mind you, I'd love to turn my back on everything I've preached for years

I bet that's a right laugh

Because a guy I used to know

Is returning now to show

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

And no you can't come back to mine

Because I know that you will find

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

You were funny the other night

You were just name dropping

Talking about scene hopping

Dreaming of chart topping

I remember, just before I walked away

Wondering to myself

How someone that lives so much of their lives through other people

Could possible have so much to say

Because a guy I used to know

Is returning now to show

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

And no you can't come back to mine

Because I know that you will find

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

You know, your scene has got a lot to answer for

Like all these clued up arseholes

Trying to set us and Wakefield at war

You know it's not right but it's something you like

Because a guy I used to know

Is returning now to show

That the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me

And no you can't come back to mine

But you will always blow my mind

Yeah the wrong way to be

Is rubbing off on me
