Negative Guy Songtext
von Man & the Echo

A barbecue restaurant on the outskirts of Sale
This isn′t the gig of my life
The bad times are over for full on wings and ale
But I won't sing this the right side

Well I′m just a negative guy
Yeah, just a negative guy
Ooh, just a negative guy

A nice snowless dinner on the street where I live
Everyone seems to be high
On the fiction of Britain, the nightmare of empire
An evening with toads at the story house
I think I'll be staying inside

Well I'm just a negative guy
Yeah, just a negative guy
Ooh, just a negative guy


The branches are shaking, then the bough breaks and
The leaves fall and splash through the cobbled road
The backdrop is melting, and no-one is helping
And then there′s a ring on the prop telephone
I try to answer, but I can′t move my arm
I'm glad everyone is so calm

I′m just a negative guy
Ooh, just a negative guy
Yeah, just a negative guy

Ooh, just a negative guy
Yeah, just a negative guy

Ooh, I'm just a negative guy
Yeah, I′m just a negative guy
Ooh, I'm just a negative guy
Yeah, I′m just a negative guy
Ooh, I'm just a negative guy
Yeah, I'm just a negative guy
Ooh, I′m just a negative guy
Yeah, I′m just a negative guy
Ooh, just a negative guy

Yeah, I'm just a negative guy
Yeah, I′m just a negative guy
