The Fratellis – I Know Your Kind lyrics

Well you've been scratching around in the basement
Looking for somewhere to hide
Making your own entertainment
Trying hard to salvage some pride

Well you're the last of the original orphans
And baby you're a wonderful friend
I love the way you say I'm forgiven
And that I don't have to pretend

I'm no squeeze
Well I'm no Monday's child
Tell me please
Half a made up story
Of syncopated glory
Of when you and the kid ran wild

And I know your kind
You've got a dirty mind
You think that half the world's gone blind
Well don't ya

And I can't get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don't ya

Well you say you only want to amuse me
Just flash me that toothless smile
You tie me up in words that confuse me
And terrorize me all the while

Aw you're so twee
And you're so very dim
Every time we meet
You tell me of the time
When you wish that you was mine
And now it hurts you when you try to begin

And I know your kind
You've got a filthy mind
You think that half the world's gone blind
Well don't ya

And I can't get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don't ya
Oh baby why don't ya
Oh

I know your kind
You've got a filthy mind
You think that half the world's gone blind
Don't ya

And I can't get on
While you should be just good as gone
When everything you say sounds wrong
Oh yes it does
Oh baby why don't ya
Oh baby why don't ya
Oh baby why don't ya
Oh baby why don't ya
