You Will Never Be No Good

you will never be no good
no you will never be no good
d`you know what i`d do if i could
chop you up into firewood
because you have sinned far too many times
you have sinned far too many times
and you will pay for all your crimes
you will never be no good
not not ever no good
you know it`s hard to sympathise
you know it`s hard to sympathise
when you never tell nothing but lies
and it`s hard to sympathise
you say you`re born in the barrel of a gun
some say you`re born in the barrel of a gun
you were your mother`s seventh son
and no excuse could be a good enough one
and don`t you love her madly
you want to be her daddy
well that won`t do you no good
you might just slip into the priesthood
you will never be no good
no you will never be no good
d`you know what i`d do if i could
and then we`d all receive a knighthood
you`ll never be no good
