Lyrics Bad Manners – Skinhead Love Affair
Text:
I met her at a ballroom gig
She said my braces were too big
I said «I like your 2tone clothes»
She said «I like your broken nose»
She bought me nothing but a fight
She said I wasn’t mister right
It’s over it’s over it’s over
It was a skinhead love affair
You know a skinhead love affair
I took her down to last resort
She stole a shirt, I went to court
She said she’d always stand by me
Even when I did D.C.
I thought about her every day
Like lovers do when they’re away
She never came to visit me
It’s over it’s over it’s over
It was a skinhead love affair
You know a skinhead love affair
On the day that I got out
My skinhead girl she weren’t about
She got herself a soulgirl perm
Joined the Canvey Island firm
I got down on bended knee
And asked her if she’d marry me
She said «SKINHEAD, CAN’T YOU SEE?»
It’s over it’s over it’s over
It was a skinhead love affair
You know a skinhead love affair
You know a skinhead love affair
I’m just a skinhead in love, just a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead, a skinhead, a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead in love, just a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead, a skinhead, a skinhead in love
I’m just a skinhead in love, just a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead, a skinhead, a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead in love, just a skinhead in love
Just a skinhead, a skinhead, a skinhead in love
