The Divine Comedy - Becoming More Like Alfie - 2020 remaster lyrics

Artist: The Divine Comedy

album: Charmed Life - The Best Of The Divine Comedy (Deluxe Edition)


"Well are you all settled in?
Right, we can begin.
My name is..."
Alfie!
Once there was a time
When my mind lay on higher things
And once there was a time
I could find pretty words to sing
But now, well now I find
It saves time to say what you mean
I know it seems so unrefined
But it's time to let off some steam
Oh come on!
Everybody knows that "No" means "Yes"
Just like glasses come free on the NHS
But the more I look through them the more I see
I'm becoming more like Alfie
Once there was a time
When a kind word could be enough
And once there was a time
I could blindfold myself with love
But not now - now I'm resigned
To the kind of life I had reserved
For other guys less smart than I
Y'know - the kind who will always end up with the girls
And besides
Everybody knows that "No" means "Yes"
Just like glasses come free on the NHS
But the more I look through them the more I see
I'm becoming more like Alfie
Oh come on!
I'm becoming more like Alfie.
