m.j. hibbett & the validators - best behaviour lyrics

old friend, his new girlfriend
and me in the pub
it was so sweet
to see them so much in love
but conversation was weird
we talked about proper stuff
for the first time in years
guess it must be because he was on his

best behaviour
best behaviour
he didn’t want to dissuade her
so he was on best behaviour

she said can i get
any of you a drink?
when she went to the bar i said
i bet you’re dying to know what i think
i said she’s really nice
he said yeah, she really is
she’s not usually this polite
it’s almost as if she is on her

best behaviour
best behaviour
she normally swears like a sailor
she’s on best behaviour

sometimes it seems that we spend half our lives
trying to give good accounts of ourselves
some people would say we should speak as we find
and it’s tough luck for anyone else
you know the type
straight talking, direct
what you see is what you get
unafraid to be delightfully
politically incorrect
but that’s not being clever
that’s just being rude
for people who think that they’re better
than the rest of us it’s an excuse to use

bad behaviour
bad behaviour
do us all a favour
and pack in this bad behaviour

it’s selfish, it’s lazy, it’s what we’re not
hey, manners are free but they’re worth a lot
give us suavity, elegance, style and good grace
it’ll make the world a more charming place

with best behaviour
best behaviour
the better part of our nature
is when we’re on best behaviour
