Heart Foundation - Bad News (Do Better)

I took bribe after bribe from a shady guy
The cloud of unknowing
You might have heard of him
Before

Whenever I'm getting a bit too big
I'm reminded of the evening of the beginning
The look on your face, the shaking lip
The flood of tears that followed it

My darling, my sweetheart, my pumpkin, my pretty
I've gone and done something really shitty
I've been a cold lover, took you for granted
Your heart went up in flames and it's still not landed

My friends all asked me, was I insane
Your friends still look at me much the same
Like I'm bad news
And you can do better, and you know it

My darling, my sweetheart, my pumpkin, my pretty
Now we're moving out and going to different cities
The times they might be trying, you might do lots of crying, you know

Which is why I still recall that night last November
Prior to a week I can't even remember
It knocked me for six and you were gone by seven
The bullet had been bit and the tie was severed

And I can say that I will change
Or that I have already, but the fact remains
That I'm bad news
And you can do better and you know it
