The Fratellis – Boy Scout To The End lyrics

Well I don’t wanna be where the bands are
I don't wanna hear that chainsaw noise
I don’t give a damn about your hopes and your dreams
Or what the rest of the world enjoys

Well I’ve been chewing razor blades honey
I’ve been chasing meat
I’ve got a salvation army banging on in my head
And a bucket of bones at my feet

And there's nothing coming easy
And there’s witches in my bed
There’s a taste in my mouth that I just can’t place
And I’m haunted by the things I should have said

I’m trying to get better
Well I’ll be your best friend
And I’ll kiss goodbye to my evil twin
On my word you can depend
Boy scout to the end

Well I don’t wanna see in your windows
I don’t wanna meet your gold dust friends
I don’t give a damn about the money in your bank
On what your happiness all depends

Well I’ve been sucking on dead air honey
I’ve been chasing wind
I’ve got a hole in my pocket where the sun don’t shine
And I’m paranoid that I've been twinned

And everything's moving slowly
Like a carousel sticking in the mud
Everybody's hanging on for one last dance
And I'm bringing my one last drug

I’m trying to get better
I’ll be your best friend
And I’ll kiss goodbye to my evil twin
On my word you can depend
Boy scout to the end

Well I don’t wanna be in your phone book
Every time you call me, I’ll be engaged
I don’t give a damn if you ever get to know me
Or you're horrified and enraged

I’ve been swallowing rusty nails honey
I’ve been breaking teeth
I’ve got a bag full of tricks even I don’t believe
And I'm a whole different story underneath

And I’m sick and tired of being right
Ad my heart beats once a day
There’s a hole in my head where the rain gets in
And I’m too old to live any other way

I’m trying to get better
I’ll be your best friend
And I’ll kiss goodbye to my evil twin
On my word you can depend

Boy scout to the end
Aww no
Woo hoo
