Adam And The Ants

B-Side Baby

My baby says I mistreat her
I don't know about that
I only know when I beat her
She likes to call me a -

She keeps on playing those B-side records
All day long in the flat
"They're a little bit obscure" she says
I call her a -

B-side baby
And that's that
She's just a B-side baby
And that's a fact (ooh)

*I think "Punk" is an overused word
As a matter of fact
I hate Joey Ramone when he says
He's gonna beat on a -

He's going to find himself d-down an alley
With his face beaten flat
And a spray job in bright pink letters, saying
B-R-A-T spells

B-side baby
And that's that
A b-side baby
And that's a fact (ooh, put it in my ear!)

B-side baby
And that's that
She's just a B-side baby
And that's a fact (away!)

My baby says I mistreat her
I don't know about that
I only know when I beat her
She likes to call me a -

She keeps on playing those B-side records
All day long in the flat
"They're a little bit obscure" she says
I call her a -

B-side baby
And that's that
A b-side baby
And that's a fact (ooh, put it in my ear!)

A b-side baby
And that's that
She's just a B-side baby
And that's a fact (it is, it is, it is)

*alternative verse in early live versions:

You gonna get ya an ulcer from your
Laying round on your back
And if I see you with that boy
I'm gonna tie you up
