Badly Drawn Boyis an independent singer-songwriter, born Damon Gough October 2, 1969 in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, although the family returned to Bolton, Lancashire before Gough reached the age of one. Gough chose his stage name from a character that appeared in the cartoon show "Sam And His Magic Ball" which he saw on TV at a party in Trafford, Manchester in 1995. Before he thought of using this name he made some 'business cards', each one unique, with a printed picture of a drawing by his nephew, and a small collage by Gough. This was then laminated and given out to friends and people at clubs in Blackburn and Manchester. His 2000 album The Hour of Bewilderbeastwon a prestigious Mercury Prize.

Chaos Theory Lyrics
Badly Drawn Boy
You fly like an arrow
I lie in the shadow
Only to be blessed with silence
You shoot using your licence to kill the pain
cos you fly an arrow
Straight to my heart
Blow it apart every time
You go like a dream
Nothing seems real
Dont even know how I feel
Now your shy
An Im shallow,
My brain turns like a pulp of marrow,
But oh no, Im not planning to stay lost
I know I could remove you from chaos
But you touch me with poison
Shoots to my brain
Sending me crazy, insane
Like some kind of marrow
Give you a taste of a feeling
A much brighter place
You fly like an arrow
I lie in the shadows
Only to be blessed with silence
You should use your licence to kill the pain
cos you fly an arrow
Straight to my heart
Blow it apart every time
Though I may dream
Nothing seems real
You dont even know how I feel
