The Scouse Guy Songtext
von The Abstracts

Oh I beg for spare change
I never meant to be beguiling
And were you just nervous?
Was it the alcohol or were you really smiling?

Well I sang my sad refrain your eyes they darted
Skipping across the minor scale
Upon that note you departed

Oh forgive me
For I believe I fall in love with a girl with no name

I wish I could laugh about it
Is love just a losing game?
I wish I was like the Scouse guy
He would have at least asked for your name


I mourn for my mother
She says "How you doing son?"
I lie and say I′m doing alright
Well inside I'm still blundering
And wondering when will this ocean of love come to light?

So I sang my sad refrain for the broken hearted
Why is this voyage always over before it started?

Oh forgive me
For I believe I fall in love
Well I′ll never stand to gain

I wish I could laugh about it
Is love just a losing game?
I wish I was like the Scouse guy
He would have at least asked for your name

I wish I was like the Scouse guy
He would have least asked for your name
