The Bad Thing - Arctic Monkeys

Do the bad thing,
Take off your wedding ring,
But it wont make it that much easier, it might make it worse,

the nights like a whirlwind,
Somebody's girlfriend's is talking to me but its alright,
She's saying that he’s not gonna slap me or try to attack me,
He’s not the jealous type,
and I only need to get half an excuse and I’m away,
But when there’s no excuses that’s much easier to say,
I've been before, but all these capers make us too good for her to ignore,
She's talking but I’m not entirely sure

Do the bad thing,
Take off your wedding ring,
But it wont make it that much easier, it might make it worse,

A sudden disheartener somebody's partner's talking to me,
But I don’t know that is what she is, and she murmurs things to confirm that the tragedy is true,
And I knew 'how could she not, she could have anyone she wants,
And I’m struggling to think of an immediate response,
Like I don’t mind, be a big mistake, for you to wait, and have me waste your time,
Really love its fine, said really love it's fine.

And then the third time it occurred that there was something to destroy,
I knew before the invitation that there was this boy,
Oh but she carried on suggesting a struggle to refuse,
She said it was the red wine this time, but that is no excuse
