Divine Comedy, The - Bad Ambassador Lyrics






I wanna chill, I wanna sit real still
I wanna sleep like the dead on a bed of roses
Me and my lovely wife
We're in the prime of life
I wanna feel real, I wanna free-wheel
I wanna steal the show from under their noses
I wanna get you off
Ain't that enough?
I'm gonna abseil down my ivory tower
And buy myself a Jaguar

I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for
I wanna show you so much more... but maybe some other time

I wanna play with the big boys
I wanna ride with the tough guys on a Japanese motorbike
I wanna hold your hand
Hey, what's your favourite band?
I wanna look like they looked
I wanna shake like they shook, I wanna take what they took
I wanna get you high
Don't ask me why
It's just something I've got to do
I'll try to make it up to you

I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for
I wanna show you so much more... but maybe some other time

I'm not the Pope and I don't wanna be the Archbishop of Canterbury

I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for
I wanna show you so much more
Yeah I could show you so much more
But I'm a bad ambassador

Well, maybe some other time...

    Oh man. This song takes me back. So incredible. Great song, great album. God bless Neil Hannon. Also, considering it features a sasquatch, this is oddly one of the sexiest videos I ever seen.
