 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 possibley 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
 (Nothing here maybe some occasional improvised B strumming)
 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
