If I said you were evil
You’d knock me off my feet
If I said you’re a good girl
You’d bore me off my seat
You’ll nev­er see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I’m fre­quently appalled
By them pre­tend­ing to be poor men

I’d give you all I can now
I don’t have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Insti­tu­tions who are tak­ing yours and mine

I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad
I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad

It’s writ­ten in the books
In the lit­er­at­ure that I’ve read
Tem­por­ary blindness
Breez­ing through the fog again
You’ll nev­er see me walking
Down a guilty middle-class street
I’m fre­quently appalled
By them pre­tend­ing to be poor men

I’d give you all I can now
I don’t have enough arms for you
Ask the people with the real cash
Insti­tu­tions who are tak­ing yours and mine

I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad
I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad

I nev­er get enough of it

I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad
I won’t feel guilty, I won’t feel bad

Bad Bad Bad!!!
