Mao Badge

(Stephen Duffy)

Pushing and pulling,

And trying to make my way

Through the crowd on the underground.

I'm just a man

And I hope that I can be true

Like I've never been true before.

I know that you'll be here

For the good and the bad times.

I hope you know I'll be here

For the bad and the good times.

Pushing and pulling,

Why can't they leave us alone,

Pay the rent and the telephone.

Let's just stay in,

Play old records and watch TV,

Something you taped on video.

I know that you'll be here

For the good and the bad times.

I hope you know I'll be here

For the bad and the good times.

Mao badge and arts lab

A cigarette on the bus

Bus to school

Comprehensive school.

Music and books before

Girlfriends and looks go in

Anaglypta in cinnamon.

I know that you'll be here

For the good and the bad times.

I hope you know I'll be here

For the bad and the good times.

I hope that there aren’t too many bad times.

I hope that there aren’t too many bad times.

I hope that there aren’t too many bad times.
