Lyrics
Because a guy I used to know Is returning now to show That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me I guess we were never going to be friends I've never really liked people that are too right on Mind you, I'd love to turn my back on everything I've preached for years I bet that's a right laugh Because a guy I used to know Is returning now to show That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me And no you can't come back to mine Because I know that you will find That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me You were funny the other night You were just name dropping Talking about scene hopping Dreaming of chart topping I remember, just before I walked away Wondering to myself How someone that lives so much of their lives through other people Could possible have so much to say Because a guy I used to know Is returning now to show That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me And no you can't come back to mine Because I know that you will find That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me You know, your scene has got a lot to answer for Like all these clued up arseholes Trying to set us and Wakefield at war You know it's not right but it's something you like Because a guy I used to know Is returning now to show That the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me And no you can't come back to mine But you will always blow my mind Yeah the wrong way to be Is rubbing off on me

It's their their first new album in over five years.
