Negative Attitude - Lloyd Cole

Look at the world through a rose tint lens

I get mine from a poison pen

I’ve got a negative attitude

And I don’t mind

You want to paint the renaissance fair

I want to try to relate to your colourful hair

Is that a negative attitude?

Why be content with the sky

When there’s higher to go?

Get off the floor

Help your self to some more

Because it’s free to be you

And it’s free to be me

And I know

Look at the girl on the bad hair day

Look very close, I think I like what she’s trying to say

She’s got a negative attitude

Why be content with the sky

When there’s higher to go?

Get off the floor

You can dance if you’re bored

Because it’s free to be you

And it’s free to be me

And I know

I heard it on my radio

You want to sleep in an Ono sack

We want to live in a prefab shack in New Hampshire

We’ve got a negative attitude

Why be content with the sky

When there’s higher to go?

Get off the floor

Help your self to some more

Because it’s free to be you

And it’s free to be groovy, I know

I heard it on my radio
