Ahem.

#1 Post by stussyboy »

(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid

See you on the TV
Call you every day
Fly across the ocean
Just to let you get your way

No-one understands me
Where I’m coming from
Why would I be with someone
Who’s obviously so dumb?

Love comes (love comes)
Love grows (love grows)
Everytime you rise to meet me
Take my hand to greet me
Love comes
Love grows
And power can give a man
Much more than anybody knows

(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid

Before we ever met
I thought like everybody did it
You were just a moron
(……………………)

You flew up all the way
Like a heart chasing a dove
I never thought that I would be
A sacrifice in love

It comes
It grows
And now we’re tied together
Everybody knows

(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid

Is stupid really stupid?
Or a different kind of smart?
Do we really have a relationship
So special, in your heart?

(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid

I have to ask myself
Like any lover might
Have you made a fool of me?
Are you not Mr Right?
You grin
I pose
It’s not about sincerity
Everybody knows

(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid
(oh oh) I’m with stupid

Is stupid really stupid?
Or are you really smart?
That’s how you stole my heart
I’m with stupid

Love it! Very witty.

For some reason I can only hear 'A Man Could Get Arrested' when I read the verse lyrics...

So... you've heard it then, eh?

Classic PSB lyrics. I like how they can apply to both a political & a love relationship.

edited sarcasm, Syncratic... you're losing your touch.

At least Bush and Blair aren't mentioned by name :wink:

I actually didn't want TNIFIL to be misconstrued as good lyrics. You're right though, I should remain ambiguous , as always.

So, here's to SHOOT THE DOG 2 (SHOOT THE FOOT)

Big respect to Janet and myself for speculating correctly that the song was about Bush and Blair, by the way...

I can't be bothered to post the thread, but it's somewhere back in January...

Where are they from originally ? I got them by e-mail.

-What would you tell someone about yourself if you wanted to impress them?
