Waterboys, The - Rosalind (You Married The Wrong Guy) Lyrics
His head is filled with useless air
His philosophy beyond repair
You’ll pine and he won’t care
Get out before he crops your hair
when are you gonna see
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
pick up your skirts and flee
His hands are full of drifting sand
Soon he’ll be making his demands
And have you saying preposterous things
Get out before he snaps your wings
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
pick up your skirts and flee
His courtliness is just an act
a sea of hubris lies behind his tact
when you least expect it, he’ll attack
get out with your self-worth intact
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
when are you gonna see
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
pick up your skirts and flee
down the misty avenue, through the city fog
I saw you promenading like the princess and the frog
Some of us are volunteers, some were pressed
But what are you doing in that cuckoo’s nest?
His eyes are full of illusion’s lies
his conscience long since compromised
with all the grief that that implies
get out before your reason dies
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
when are you gonna see
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
pick up your skirts and flee
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
when are you gonna see
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
you should have married me!

Awesome up up up right on awesome sweet voice 👍
His head is filled with useless air
His philosophy beyond repair
You’ll pine and he won’t care
Get out before he crops your hair
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind

You married the wrong guy, Rosalind

His hands are full of drifting sand
Soon he’ll be making his demands
And have you saying preposterous things
Get out before he snaps your wings
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
When are you gonna see
You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
Pick up your skirts and flee

You married the wrong guy, Rosalind
You should have married me!
Ha... too funny, “get out before he crops your hair”
The best Hammond song of 2015!
brilliant just what we need. good music?
heard this song on the radio today. fuckin love it :3
"This is the Sea", "Fisherman's Blues", "Dream Harder", "A Pagan Place", "Too Close to Heaven", "A Rock in a Weary Land", and yes..."Modern Blues". All incredible. Please stop arguing over which one is MORE incredible. Just go see them live and ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
On this tour, Mike and Steve do an INCREDIBLE duet of "Don't Band the Drum" that will leave you feeling a bit too close to heaven!!!!!!
Cierto Roberto, en directo son buenísimos. Fui a verles en Madrid y estuvieron fantásticos.
what an album great songs!!! i can see elvis what a song!!!
Please listen to the whole album, fucking brilliant. the best waterboys album, worth waiting for.
When you think this is the best Waterboys album, I'm almost sure You never listened to the masterpiece called "This Is The Sea".
I heard the whole album live the the other day and was a lot more impressed by the band rather than him, his lackluster performance and this lackluster material. The band was so good it kind of masked those shortcomings. Maybe he's having a midlife crisis.
Sorry but Still Burning and the aforementioned This is the Sea have much more emotional depth than this latest offering. It comes across a bit like a bitter rocker waxing nostalgic but most of all it strikes me as insincere...
