Stop Doing Be Good - Malcolm Middleton

Stop doing the things you shouldn’t be doing

Start doing the things that you should

The girl with the press-able nose

Has moved in with me and it’s good

I try to be good

But I always fail

I won’t drink tonight

Then by tomorrow I’m ill

I know that I should

Try to be good

I don’t want to go to hell

I don’t want to go to hell

Stop doing the things you shouldn’t be doing

Start doing the things that you should

The girl with the press-able nose

Has moved in with me and it’s good

I’ve found love in some parts of Scotland

I found peace when I was in France

When the radio’s on I bite my head back

In the hallway I laugh when we dance

Most people smell bad in weather

Some people can’t handle time

How did we get to this place

Where I’m yours and you are mine

Write a song

Give a bit away

Share a secret

So there’s a little less weight

You do it to me

I do it to you

We all get down

We all feel blue

Then we all come to

Stop doing the things you shouldn’t be doing

And start doing the things that you should

We’ve all got opposable thumbs

So why are we in such a bad mood
