Bad Ambassador

The Divine Comedy

I wanna chill, I wanna sit real still

I wanna sleep like the dead on a bed of roses

Me and my lovely wife

We're in the prime of life

I wanna feel real, I wanna free-wheel

I wanna steal the show from under their noses

I wanna get you off

Ain't that enough?

I'm gonna abseil down my ivory tower

And buy myself a Jaguar



I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for

I wanna show you so much more...

but maybe some other time



I wanna play with the big boys

I wanna ride with the tough guys on a Japanese motorbike

I wanna hold your hand

Hey, what's your favourite band?

I wanna look like they looked

I wanna shake like they shook,

I wanna take what they took

I wanna get you high

Don't ask me why

It's just something I've got to do

I'll try to make it up to you



I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for

I wanna show you so much more...

but maybe some other time



I'm not the Pope and I don't wanna be

the Archbishop of Canterbury



I'm a bad ambassador for that elusive place you're searching for

I wanna show you so much more

Yeah I could show you so much more

But I'm a bad ambassador



Well, maybe some other time...
