Badhead Lyrics

Cover art for Badhead lyrics by Blur

I agree with def_linus on that it's about having lost touch with a friend . Neither of the two have really stayed in touch, which you can blame on the other person or on yourself. You might start out blaming yourself, but then realize that the other person hasn't stayed in touch with you either. Or maybe you did try to keep in touch, but gave up because your attempts didn't have any effect. This could also make you feel that, eventhough you care, there's no use in arguing about it, it's just not worth the the trouble since you've already tried to make it work and didn't succeed. Besides, arguing might not even solve anything at all. So you just grin and bear it.

To me it seems that the "it" is just losing the friendship.

Also, i think these are the correct lyrics:

So far i've not really stayed in touch Well you knew as much it's no surprise that today I'll get up around two from a lack of anything to do

And I might as well just grin and bear it Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument

And you have not really stayed in touch Well I knew as much it's no surprise that today I get up for round two with nothing to do Except get a touch of flu

And I might as well grin and bear it Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument And in any case i'd rather wear it It's like a badhead in the morning

And I know

And I might as well grin and bear it Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument And in any case i'd rather wear it It's like a badhead in the morning

And I might as well grin and bear it Because it's not worth the trouble of an argument And in any case i'd rather wear it You're like a badhead in the morning

(changes: early too->around two (3rd line) It's -> You're (last line)
