Sorry Song

Lyrics

There are one or two good things about the British Though they can be rather shy or even skittish They're incredibly disarming They can be very charming Indeed, Hugh Grant has earned a living being twittish As a Brit there's not much at which I excel But there's one thing I can do extremely well While the French are being rude And the Swedes are being nude The Brits, we can apologize like hell So I'm sorry Sorry for my hairstyle It's a rather square style All I could afford I'm sorry This disc has cost you money I hope you found it funny And you weren't too bored Well a dear old friend of mine was in a bind So I agreed to put him up just to be kind And to my great surprise I heard myself apologize Saying "Sorry, but the sheets aren't even ironed." I was minding my own business in a bar Merely trying to sink a quiet jar When a pair of drunken louses Spilled their beer all down me trousers But instead of crying "Who do you think you are?" I said Sorry Sorry for existing Foolishly persisting Please don't think I'm strange I'm sorry Maybe I should think for you Let me buy a drink for you Please, keep all the change I'm sorry So apologetic It's really quite pathetic At boldness I'm the worst I'm sorry Apologies are furtive Even when being assertive A "sorry" sneaks out first I'm sorry, I think you'll find I was here before you! Contrition Cowed into submission I am really wishin' I could be a man Compunction Self esteem dysfunction I'm really up the junction Sorry's what I am Key change! I'm sorry Sorry for that key change Something of a C change Really rather naff I'm sorry Still self-referential Wasting my potential On an easy laugh I'm sorry Sorry for Hiroshima Gosh, I'd like to wash-i-ma Hands of all of that I'm sorry Sorry for the Alamo Sorry about Guantanamo Sorry Blair's a twat Well, ladies and gentlemen, thank you so much for listening to this CD! I hope you've enjoyed it, and if you haven't, I'm sorry. In the meantime, let's all apologize together! We're sorry Sorry about the ozone Now it's a no-go zone Let's hope it grows back We're sorry Sorry about the empire Let's all make a bonfire Of the Union Jack We're sorry For murder, war, and famine Perhaps we should examine Where we all went wrong We're sorry Sorry for all our folly Sorry for being sorry Sorry for this song I'm sorry I have to take my leave now Promise not to grieve now Time to say ta-ta I'm sorry To have to go and spoil it I really need the toilet See you in the bar Well I'm sorry I'm repentent I'm disconsolate And abashed If sorry was a radio station I'd be the transmitter And I couldn't be more sorry if I was Gary Glitter I'm sorry So sorry I'm sorry Oh, still feel terrible...
