Nouvelle Vague - Sweet and Tender Hooligan lyrics

He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan And he said that he'd never, never, never, never do it again Not until the next time He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan And he swore that he'd never, never, never, never, never do it again And of course he won't 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 'Cause she was old and she would have died anyway Don't blame The sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan And he said that he'd 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 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 For you my love Don't blame The sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan 'Cause he said that he'd never, never, never, never do it again He was a sweet and tender hooligan, hooligan Because he'd never, never, never, never do it again Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera, etcetera Etcetera, etcetera In the midst of life we are in d**h Etcetera
