Sweet and Tender Hooligan Lyrics

He was a sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
And he said that he'll never, never do it again
And of course he won't (not until the next time)
He was a sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
And he swore that he'll never, never do it again
And of course he won't (not until the next time)
Poor old man
He had an "accident" with a three bar fire
But that's ok
Because he wasn't very happy anyway

Poor woman
Strangled in her very own bed as she read
But that's ok
Because she was old and she would have died anyway
Don't blame
This sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never, never, never, never, never, never do it again
(not until the next time)
Jury you've heard every word
So before you decide
Would you look into those "mother-me" eyes
I love you for you my love, you my love
You my love, you my love

Jury you've heard every word
But before you decide
Would you look into those "mother-me" eyes
I love you for you my love, you my love
Love you just for you my love
Don't blame
The sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never never do it again and
"in the midst of life we are in debt etc"
The sweet and tender hooligan
Hooligan
Because he'll never never do it again and
"in the midst of life we are in debt etc"
Etc! etc! etc! etc!
In the midst of life we are in debt etc!
Etc! etc! etc! etc!
In the midst of life we are in debt etc!
Etc! etc! etc! etc!
Etc! etc!
Etc! etc! etc! etc!
In the midst of life we are in debt etc!
