Here's the lyrics to "Sulk" (only available on the ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN
promo CD). The words are pretty bitter, but the melody is joyous. It's a
great track and the Red Stars band sounds great on it.
SULK
by Billy Bragg and Cara Tivey
[Reprinted without permission.]
If you hate me, why don't you go?
And if you love me, why don't you let me know?
But you just won't give me an inch, so
You just sulk
Why do I want to hide whenever you show up?
You know your moods just make me want to throw up
Why don't you just bloody well grow up?
You just sulk
All of the time
Why don't you pick me up or throw me a line?
All over the place
Why don't you tell me what you think?
Come on and tell me to my face
If you love me, why don't you show it?
If you hate me, why don't you let me know it?
Why don't you just pick up something and throw it?
You just sulk
If you want to bend my arm,
Well, you could do it with a little more charm
But you just couldn't bear to do me any harm
So you just sulk
When you tell me that you want to quit
And then you treat me like a piece of shit
And when I ask you what's that got to do with it
You just sulk
